Still in Deltaville

That's right. We're still in Deltaville. When we arrived it was hotter than my final resting place so we signed up for a month. Plugged in and under cover with a West Marine nearby it's been a good spot to get some maintenance items ticked off the list.


Our Deltaville home.

Wax on. Wax off.

Shortly after we got back to Tourist, Bru & Sandy came over to belatedly celebrate Pam's birthday.
2nd year together for Pam's b-day.

Much to our surprise they bought Pam a nice 55' Fleming for her birthday! Thanks guys!

Within just a short distance from Tourist I found these different boat brands which only scratch the surface of the many here in the marina.
 

Once in awhile we borrow the loaner car from the marina and get off the property. On a big day we may hit the market, the seafood outlet, and West Marine. That is if we can squeeze it all in within the hour that we can have the loaner. And we have to get this done before 5 p.m. when the wheels apparently fall off the cars. Talk about pressure!

The other day we had a little extra time so we cruised some of the boatyards in the area.
 
Saw Mandy resting on her journey from California.

Found Three Amigo's who we had socialized with in the Bahamas.
 Saw Coconuts sporting new bottom paint.
And when we returned we found this crab clinging to one of the dock pilings. A few more & we might have dinner.

This past Saturday we had dinner at the Brubaker's along with 2 other couples and then went to Donk's Theater (www.donkstheater.com) for the Lil Ole Opry Show. Pretty much a family & friends jam session on stage much like you'd find in the Ozark's but without the polish. It was a fun night of entertainment with some good musicians and singers and even better company.
Donk's in Matthews, Va. A true slice of Americana.

  1. I was just going to email to see where you are. We will be in Sandy Hook Wednesday and probably on the Chesapeake (weather dependent) next week. Will email when we know more. Smart to stay cool, not looking forward to returning to the heat!
