Dear Bloggers,
You’re back!!! Glad you are. More punishment available!!
Today I am in Salinas. Don and his new friend have gone back to San Juan. 1. To get dinghy, 2. To see about windows. The man in Mayaguez could not bend them. So we are back to square one. He has 3 places he can try. The dinghy place assures us that the dinghy is fixed this time around.
We were delayed on the boat splash because of rain and also a holiday. So we are moved to Saturday. If not then, it will be Monday the 30th. The boat has been on the hard for a month now. But really I’m not discouraged at all. They have done a great job and we have seen how hard they have worked. Things take time, especially the painting. I also found a place in the boat that they had forgotten to fiber glass, so they did that yesterday and they painted our platform yesterday also. The window frames go into today. Yea, then on to Salinas next week for metal work.
The last time we went down to Boquerón to the beach we ate at this place that had 3lb lobsters. We ordered one and it cost us $60.00. It was big, but still a ripe off and you know Don about spending money, but it was his idea, thank goodness. See picture below:
Holly has been posting my posts for me, since I am toooo stupid to figure it out. This week we have had some trouble on my end with the emails sending. Not sure what is wrong, But I write on……….
All Blog Readers, Holly will be 30 on October 15th. Mark it on your calendars, BIG 3-0!!!! Is she older than dirt, or am I older than dirt. Boy, my baby is turning 30. WOW that is making me feel really old. See below picture of Holly and the girls. Maddy 4, Hannah 17 months. Aren’t they adorable??
The weather has been questionable with a lot of Tropical waves. At least every 6 days we have high seas and wind with some squalls. So we will only be able to travel in the early mornings for about 4 hours or so, when the seas are calmer. It will take two days to get to Salinas doing it that way. But since we don’t have a Bimini, we would be out of the sun in the afternoons and in the air conditioning. The sun can be brutal down here. We don’t have too good of a tan, because we really try to stay out of the sun. We know that when we swim and snorkel we will be in the sun then, and that is plenty.
I have some friends that have blogs that have been traveling and have a lot of pictures and really good stories. I’m going to ask them if I can pass along their blog address, because I feel you would enjoy reading them. Very entertaining and beautiful pictures.
Hasta la vista, baby,
