Arrived in Florida








After working in New Jersey at the refinery which included a boring weekend, we pulled out on Thursday and made it to the boat yesterday, Saturday, in the evening.

The poor old boat has been sitting here alone for months and the resident birds decided that the mast was a great place to roost and eat the flesh off of a local berry which has a pit the size of a pea, which end up all over the boat as well as the processed berry in a different form. I attached a pic. It appears we also have a resident manatee who swims around the dock and eats the moss off the submerged dock foam and any floating tid bits that the dock traps.

We worked on the boat to try and make it white again until mid afternoon when it started to pour and hasn't stopped as yet. Had to get serious and use toilet bowl cleaner with bleach to remove the bulk of it. Inside the boat is great, no mildew, no flooding, no bugs and the air conditioner was still chugging along although we have it pretty cluttered at the moment.


Thats about all I have for now, will keep you updated as events take place.
