Once again we find ourselves in Newport our own personal Velcro Beach. We need to buy fuel, change the oil in Yoki, and fix the forward head as well as get a pump out so we have pretty much decides to hang around here for at least three days, longer if the weather doesn't cooperate. No hardship. Nice place and the cost at the dock with electricity is less than what we have paid for a mooring in some places.

Today was one of those rolly-polly sailing days with almost no wind but a good long period ocean swell coming in from the Atlantic past Block Island. Poor Admiral caught the worst of it and spent most of the day confined to quarters.

We got in at 1430 and immediate scoped out the hardware store and bought groceries.
