Another lay day in Wrightsville. Last night was kind of rough. A dry cold front arrived about 9:30pm and it blew really hard. I remember the time because I had just been beaten in third game of Farkle. Jim and Barb left HAPPY!.
I had to sleep in the main cabin to do an anchor watch -- I'm just more comfortable -- just sleep deprived. Fortunately the Rocna did us proud again and we didn't budge.
Karen wanted some more milk and meat and so we walked about a mile to a 7-11 style store for it. Hey when your cruising you have to go forage where you can.
Well that was our exercise for the day. Back on the boat we just puttered around. Craig and Dovie where on there way and we expected to see them this afternoon.
Jeff Whitfield KI4JDE who lives here called and we asked him out for a visit this afternoon. Actually he wanted to come yesterday but I had that ordeal with the fresh water pump and couldn't entertain.
Craig and Dovie arrived around 3pm and really flustered. They had run aground twice that day and were shook.. No problem we said -- we all do it. It's just part of the adventure.
Jeff came out about 4pm and we had a nice visit with Jim and Craig. The ladies all stayed home because they knew we would just talk boring HF radio stuff.
Nice evening and Chili for supper. It's getting down to the 40s tonight. Brrr -- I still have my summer blood weight.
