Velcro Beach

They call it that instead of Vero Beach because people just come and don’t leave!
We have gotten into a walking, running routine first thing in the morning. Walking to the beach and listening to the roar of the waves daily, a bus into town where there’s some fun shops, and eating out with new friends.

Well, I think we have pretty much figured out the bus system. Keith had a spray nozzle to replace, and we took a connecting bus efficiently to pick that up. I’ve enjoyed going into town by myself. Tomorrow I’m going downtown to pick up a package at the post office. The buses are very efficient, drivers helpful, and it’s free!
LOVE this city! So much to do and the weather is OUTSTANDING!
Keith has put a lot of time into maintenance. He replaced our lightbulbs that were 20 watts with two watt LED. So much more efficient, brighter, and cost-effective. He’s also done a lot of sanding and varnishing. As long as he still enjoys doing ALL of that..
The Dolphins are still smiling and entertaining us throughout the day. They especially like to put on a show when we take the dinghy into shore. :-)

For a week or so Keith and I have been taking the dinghy in/Keith runs a couple miles/I get my walk in and shower. Today we had breakfast out at First Watch- always delicious 😋.
Keith has been spending a lot of time sanding and cleaning up wood work on the boat. Living in a small area inside it always needs to be tidied up.
This mooring field is working out well for us. Venture On

Pictured we’re at the beach nearby. We have been here for the last 10 days. It is very nice, but the Wi-Fi is not strong/overused! Love the area. Friendly people, free bus into town for groceries, smaller Marina, good free water n We walked a half a mile to a very nice church yesterday. I’m keeping this short and hope it sends.
