Kelly says he has a routine now, having spent just over a week on Dock B. There was a dock party the afternoon INTREPID II arrived, which is always a great way to meet new people as well as catch up with all those we have met during other cruising seasons. He's been making room in a very crowded cabin to sleep, make coffee, but not do much cooking. Playing that familiar game of ...where is..... and sometimes actually locating the item!

The new head is installed; of course a trip to the local Ferrateria was required for an adapter. A certain sea cock which will remain unnamed is protesting about opening and closing. A visit to our nearby storeroom had him debating what to do with all these things which were too important to throw away or donate the last time. We cannot keep paying store room fees forever.
The cruisers net is active in the morning; a great way to hear who has arrived or is leaving, catch the swaps and trades and any updates or news. There are the sweetest cats who gather near the dock gates. They are all feral but well behaved. It appears they are being fed by some of the cruisers.
Kelly mentioned being disappointed to find that some restaurants had closed, including the casual gathering spot at the marina. It attempted to go upscale apparently and did not succeed. However, there are enough places to ensure he will not go hungry. It is always enjoyable to share a meal with cruising friends.

Another dock party last evening. Kelly made his excellent guacamole from a recipe passed down from his father - always a treat. There is a fund raiser for Castaway Kids today (Sunday) and perhaps it is time for a new T-shirt after all.
Hasta luego on behalf of the Captain!
