Time well spent...

We arrived at the boat on Tuesday the first of April. Many of you remember me telling you that the weather down here was sucky.....but only for a few days. The weather recently has been great, and so far this week has been just that GREAT!!
We arrived in a sunshine filled day with a temp of 75. The next 6 days have been filled with sun and even warmer temps, hitting the highs at about 86 degrees each day.
You really can't ask for better weather.

We spent the last week traveling either by boat to car to places like Beaufort, Morehead City, Cherry Branch and Cedar Island. We repaired and drank & ate well.

Today we took our truck for a ferry boat ride from Minossott Beach to Cherry Branch and then back to Minossott Beach, NC. and while in Cherry Branch, we drove to Cedar Island and were supposed to board the 1:00PM ferry to Oracoke, however, after looking at the schedule, we decided not to because that would only give us one hour to explore Oracoke until just about 4PM, when the last ferry leaves to go back to Cedar Island. It is a 2.5 hour ride aboard the ferry, so technically we get to Oracoke at 3PM.

Last Thursday, April 3rd, was spent putting a new seawater pump in our a/c system.....the old one just got tired and died.

No matter how you look at what we did....it was a great week.

Next week we will be attending boat shows in Oriental and the on Kent Island, (Annapolis) Md. We should be back in Clyde, NY on Monday the 14th. I am looking forward to both shows, but especially the one here in Oriental because it is under the direction of the local Rotary Club
