Every Wednesday the folks at the marina here do a propane run (our stovetop and oven are on propane, and there is a propane heater - not that we're using it these days) and you have to drop your tank off at the office by 10am. We made coffee this morning, no problem, but when we go to make lunch (Janet was about to make grilled cheese sandwiches) we realize that we are out of propane! So now we have to figure that out, since we don't want to wait until next Wednesday. Not a big problem, but just indicative of how everything is a bit more difficult on a boat. . .
Got some good cleaning done today before it got too hot and we are feeling better and better as we get more stuff put away into clean spaces. Haven't figured out anything new with our battery charger and we are running out of juice, so we e-mailed Ben asking for starting instructions for the diesel. He got back to us promptly, so we hope to try and start the engine tomorrow and that should really juice up our battery bank - we'll see how that all goes!!
It was movie night again - Edison with Morgan Freeman, Kevin Spacey, and Justin Timberlake to mention a few stars - we left early as it kinda sucked (bad cops vs. journalist movie). On the way back from the movie we ran into Tom, who invited us for a sail tomorrow (or the next day, depending on weather and Dan's plans with the ladies he's trying to meet down here). We will probably have to turn him down so we can get stuff done. . .
Rick and Jenny of Time Traveler told us about a Sunday night welcoming party every week. They always go, as there are free margaritas, tequila, and prizes (like massages, other spa stuff, and waverunner rides). So we have plans to go with them on Sunday - should be fun as they are super nice and we haven't really had the chance to get to know them at all yet.
Janet has a UTI so we went to the doctor yesterday. He charged US$60 for the exam and gave her some antibiotics and some sort of clean-out-the-system drug. He was pretty funny, sounding all technical and then pronouncing "pee" as if it was a medical term. He said he gets people in there on their wedding day and loves to tell them that they will be fine, but no smoking, no margaritas, no beer, and no sex - just to freak them out! We hope to get reimbursed from our insurance for the exam and drugs, but that is still up in the air and tough to say what will happen.
