Day 67 & 68. Feb 22 & 23, 2017. Wed. & Thurs.

Day 67.  2/22/17.  Wed.       Vero Beach FL on mooring ball

Today was supposed to be chore day.  I was to do laundry and Lee some  boat projects.  It started raining before day light and rained all day.  There was no way we were going anywhere in the dinghy. It was also chilly. So we bundled up and read and napped all day.  Pretty wasted day but that is how it goes sometimes.


Day 68.   2/23/17.  Thurs.      Vero Beach FL on mooring ball

Today began sunny and warm.  Much better day than yesterday.  We dinked to shore and I got the laundry done.  Will probably be the last time before we get back home. Lee emptied 3 of our jerry cans of diesel into the tank.  For the first time in a long time we had to run our motor to charge our batteries.  Usually between the solar cells and the wind generator our batteries stay charged. Seems the rainy day yesterday and the lack of wind ran our batteries down.  We took the dinghy to Riverside Cafe for dinner this evening. It is just a little bit from the mooring field.  We saw dolphin on our way back to the boat after dinner. Tomorrow we will get water and more diesel and be on our way north again.
