Always Boat Repair!
This has been a real pain! Sounded like fun at first but let me tell you stripping, sanding & re-staining teak is far from fun! But how nice it looks when its finished! This is only one coat and we have 5 more to go! It has taken a while due to weather and sometimes just plain ol lack of ambition! HAHA
We had to tear out all the plumbing pipes on Thanksgiving because they were old & clogged! Thats all we will say about that! uuuggghhh
After the stainging is done we move on to painting the boat!
Oh yes I forgot to mention the anchor post rotted as well!! That is gona be some major bucks to repair!!
This is all okay by me because I am so happy living here in the Keys and on my Betelgeuse!

What a Storm!
WOW!
Early morning wake-up to survey the damage and this is what I saw! This guys fishing boat sunk! I love the picture of the two guys scratching heads! No names mentioned here! Our dinghy was full to the top of water but it didnt sink. We had some leaks in the boat but no more than normal. One of the marina gals had all of her shoes in a crate on the dock and we are guessing they are in Cuba by now! More damage done in the marina was ripped canvass bent bow sprit dinghys under water.
It was a heck of a storm and looks like it is not over yet!
Stay Tuned...

ONE FISH, TWO FISH!
How many fish do you see? This is standing on the fuel dock looking into the water at low tide! All these lil snappers are hiding and were not interested in my bait!Going Home!
This is Reese, a loggerhead turtle and she is on her way home! She has been a patient at the Turtle Hospital here in Marathon and since made a full recovery! She was taking a boat ride out to sea where she will be released! Go girl and be FREE!!Sunday, September 20, 2009

Lightning strikes just a little too Close!!
The same day we had the Water Spout at the marina, there was a lightning bolt that struck so close to the fuel dock I felt teh electricity run up my arm and it blew the gas nozzel I was holding clean out of my hand! First thing I did was wiggle my toes to be sure I was still alive! Yep, I am still kicking!!! Yee Haw!!
