Well Chuck, Darrin, and I did a little work on the 4.5hp diesel Kubota yesterday. I got a honer at harbor freight and honed the cylinder until it was nice and clean. When we opened the package of new rings we instantly knew they sent us the wrong ones as they were at least twice as large as they should be. Chuck called and the new rings are being delivered today.
I met the guy that lives down the street from Chuck and he offered me his dock. He is leaving on vacation for a week and would like to have someone around the house. We will motor down there today; it should take about 45 minutes. The sky iws growling so it may be a wet trip. We’ll have water and power, WOOT! I’ll be close to Chucks to work on the motor and get some projects done.
Darren was over yesterday using our sailright to re-stitch his bimini. I’m glad he’ll be out of the sun for the next trip. He is just starting not to peel and pick at the horrible sunburn he got on the trip up here.
I’ve been spending some time plotting and studying charts. We may stop in
Cheers all.
Sail far and live slowly.

alex–its fun readinyour daily reports even though i dont have any idea about what your talking about—how about a few words about my girls–what do they do all day while your fixingthe things that need to be done–the weather has finally gotten very hot and humid –tell sam Glenn and his wife had thgir second daughter and named her rachel-a naming party next month-were off to the cardiologist with pop for a check-up—have a great day–see you soon–bubby flip
Both cities are really nice. Me personally, I like Charleston a little bitter. The whole atmosphere, the market, the history, rainbow row. Its a gorgeous city! I also love reading the daily log. I have some clue about the things you speak of. You do a pretty good job explaining things also making it pretty easy for a “non-salty” person to catch on. Cant’ wait for some more videos.

sam-just finished reading the jamet evanivich book–its her 15 th with the same characters and i found myself laughing out loud–its aunt joanies book and she said sh did the same thing–just started LUCY-for my book club–its about her love affair with fdr. the weather is beastly hot today so im skipping my walk. HAD POP TO EAR DOCTOR TODAY AND HE WENT SWIMMING 0R WALKING IN THE WATER–the doctor said that was as important as medecine. tonight is my fsvorite program–so think you can dance—i hardly watch t.v. because it has few good programs. pop watches cnn or sports-that it-i like a god old movie once in awhile–life is quiet and im hoping to get to the shore–looking at the ocean is one of my favorite things but i seem to be limited in travel because of pops ealth–much love to you and guin
Sounds like Darren needs an instantly deployable Buddy-Bimini from Bermuda!!!
