We finished some of the exterior bright work today. We had another sunny clear day, but it was very windy. Our plans are to leave Friday morning, the forecast is for only 15 knot winds in the strait instead of 25 knot winds. We are looking forward to getting under way. Picture is sunset at Bar Harbor Marina.

How is Scooter?
05/22/2013 | Michael Ostler
Thanks Mary Lou, scooter is much better. He had ulcers on the back of his tongue , thus would not eat or drink. He is being treated for acid reflex and doing much better now.

So glad Scooter is doing much better. That would be painful.

I remember the boat Mary Lou from last summer. Can you take another picture of it before leaving? That would be neat.

Have a Safe Sail tomorrow.

You most likely heard but the bridge in Mt. Vernon Wa. collasped earlier this evening into the river.

Hope you do not go that direction.
