Martin Luther King Day & Working on our boat

19 January 2009 | Vero Beach, FL
Monday, January 19, 2009

Martin Luther King Day - today, and inauguration day - tomorrow, are integrated all through the news today. I hope we get to see the inauguration tomorrow - our TV doesn't always work - so it depends on how much electricity we have in the boat. If there's not enough power, I may have to dingy over to the marina TV.

Worked in the boat during the morning & early afternoon feeding wire under the floor for the macerator, then we caught the bus into town to West Marine. We were going to go to Lows too, but, while on the #1 bus we heard the #2 bus come on the radio saying he'd been in an accident. At the transfer station they said it would be a while so we caught the bus back to the marina and took the dingy over to the Riverside Café for burgers and beers and back to the boat. Read some and that's about it...

By the way the Riverside has interesting stuff hanging from the ceiling - note the flag...
