Here We Go Again!

February 26, 2011

Well, we've been really busy and haven't had any computer time. So we're post dating the next series of entries. This one is for February 26, 2011.

Here goes:

We have been enjoying great weather and this day gave us a carbon copy of yesterday and the day before that, and the day before that, and the day before that and... Well, you get the idea!

We did a short bike ride to the US Coast Guard base. We had heard that the Coasties were accepting out of date flares for proper disposal. We have one-half dozen that we need to get rid of, so this is perfect!

Once we arrived at the base, we found a lot more than a disposal box. There were free burgers and dogs, tables with nice freebies, not to mention a table of goodies available for purchase.

We stopped to talk to one Coasties and, before leaving, we boarded two in-water boats; a 41 and a 39. The 39 looks like an inflatable and is loaded with sophisticated equipment. As you would expect, both were well maintained.
