A Space At The Oriental Town Dock
01 July 2008
by Keith, nice today
I was fully prepared to anchor in the harbor, but wonder of wonders there was a spot free at the town dock. Perfect. Transient boats can stay there for two days at a time. My new Oriental friend Pat was there waiting and grabbed my docklines as I landed. Pat and his wife are taking my space at the rv park when we depart Thursday or Friday. Pat drove me back to Deatons to retrieve the scooter. The great thing about a town dock space is that I can drive the motorhome right up to the space and very easily load things into the boat. Plus, it makes getting the dogs acclimated easier since we don't have to dingy in and out yet. I do plan to take them on several dingy rides over the next few days. There'll be pictures, of course. I celebrated with a hamburger, hush puppies and a 1/2 and 1/2 ice tea (half sweet and half unsweet). It's 2:00 p.m. here and I'm either going to take the dogs for a walk to the boat or take a nap, or both. I also need to pick up and pay the bill at Deatons this afternoon... yikes.
