New Marina Friend

We have a new friend. The marina cat Buddy. His owners are actually at the other end of the marina, but they work all day. So, he mostly stays on the charter boat that is in the slip next to us. But, when they are out with charter guests, he comes over and visits us. He slept most of the morning in one of our plastic container boxes in the aft cabin. I guess he pretty much runs the place. Even the dogs won't mess with him.

Marilyn did some laundry this morning and then we decided to walk over the local West Marine store for some items that we needed. We couldn't find a wrench that I needed so they suggested Home Depot and said it wasn't too far down the road. Not too far if your driving a car. We figured that we put on at least 5 miles round trip, but got the things that we wanted. After we got back to the boat, our neighbor asked if we wanted to go to the grocery store, so we couldn't pass up the offer, even though we would rather have put our feet up. After the shopping it was time for a cool shower and a beer. Had two and now we're thinking it feels like it's really late, but wait, it's only 8:00pm. This day just flew by.
