Island Hopping
28 January 2012 | Sea of Cortez
Rod
We took off a several days ago for some island hopping & beach combing.
Some great weather & empty beaches were what we found with Jane & Tucker having a great time combing the beaches over a couple of days.
After lunch one day we relaxed reading for a bit & soon Jane couldn't get up. Her sciatic nerve started acting up, in a few hours she was doubled up with the mucles in her leg twiching like crazy. We hung out in the anchorage for a few more hours thinking it would ease up as the wind was now blowing about 35 with the highest gust 41.
Finally the wind began to ease, but not the pain in Jane's leg so at midnight I picked up the hook & began a long nights travel towards La Paz. I got a hold of the Dr. & he met us at the dock & within 30 minutes Jane had an IV inserted with what the Dr. called a cocktail & she was off to lulu land for about 24 hrs. I was promoted again to nurse from turdmate for a few days to administer shots & meds, now she is feeling much better.
That girl, she is always full of suprises......
But look at this beach.... and not a soul around.......
