A Clean Bottom

Weather: The temp made it down to the low 70’s… a good sleeping night! We awoke to a bright blue, sunny sky. It clouded over late in the afternoon.

Comment: The diver we hired to clean the bottom arrived as scheduled at 0800 this morning. He scrapped off a few barnacles and scrubbed off all the grass we were growing. His job was completed in about one hour (His fee was $40.00.)

We spent the remainder of the morning relaxing aboard. Reading was the order of the morning. At 1300, we went ashore to watch the Eagles play the Seattle Seahawks. At half time, we took off through the residential neighborhood and made our way to the beach, We waked up and down the 1/3-mile long boardwalk and returned in time to see the last four minutes of the game. The Eagles lost (again).

We dined on the boat and spent the night reading. Tomorrow, we’ll take our last Vero Beach bus rides for the year. After tending to some business, we’ll depart Vero for points south!
