Today

I've been a little lax in posting on the blog lately. It just seems that I've run out of things to post. We're still on the hard in Savannah waiting for the new rudder. We were told today that it should ship in about a week. That means at least 2 more weeks here. The manger of the facility had a nice lunch for his crew from a local Bar-B-Que place and we were invited to join them. It was really great ribs, pulled pork and chicken with all the trimmings.

A marina that's not too far from here is supposed to have a fireworks display tonight so I guess we'll load into the dinghy and motor down that way later today. There will probably be a lot of other boat traffic so, thankfully, we can hang close to shore and stay out of the bigger boat's way.

Nancy and I are putting some finishing touches on the cosmetic work we wanted to do while here. I'll try to replace the sink over the weekend and finish cleaning the cockpit. Nancy has just a little more wood to redo. We should also get our repaired Mack Pack back on the sail.

Nancy has still been trying to find someone to redo the salon upholstery in a time frame that is workable for us. Seems everyone is from 4 weeks to 4 months out.

We hope everyone has a great July 4th weekend and remember all who are in service to this country and their families.
