Friday we went on a shopping spree with our dock neighbors Robert & Susan aboard "Ellie 'C' ". They winter on their boat at Legacy Harbour Marina and had a car - a nice commodity for us liveaboards. We started at WalMart to pick up a prescription. After lunch at Mel's Diner, we moved on to more important stops - West Marine for boating supplies, Total Wine & More for beer, and The Fresh Market for some groceries. We had a really enjoyable day with this fun couple and expect to have many more during our month stay at the marina.

This great day was topped off with dinner of grilled pork chops and vege kabobs followed by one of the most spectacular sunsets so far.

Saturday was the day for boats. We hadn't seen one of these since leaving the Tennessee River waterways back in November. Like many seen on the river systems, this one takes passengers out for lunch and dinner cruises.

The Edison Marina, just a block away, held an antique boat show. Although they were not in the water, they were still nice to look at on their trailers. There was even one in attendance that spends its summer at Indian Lake, Ohio. This is a lake we used to boat on with our 19 foot Regal open bow runabout.
