every Friday morning is a Farmers Market in Chester … Joe picking up his French pastries, we also got fresh mussels, scallops, smoked mackerel, lots of veggies
we had to make a bracket to hold our wind generator … close by is a scrap yard, the owner made us this piece … later we went back for more aluminum pieces
Joe in a locker, installing the new piece behind the diesel tank … it was a tight spot, but all worked out well
sorting out the fresh mussels, ready for cooking
all ready for the pot
our supper of fresh market veggies, and mussels, steamed in water and hot peppers
we had to get a boat survey done for insurance for the Bahamas
Linda and David Grant, from Lunenburg Marine Services
next was the anti fouling the bottom, 3 quarts later, took a few hours in the heat
our 2nd anchor got a new coat of rust proofing paint, it looks brand new now
close to our marina is a beautiful restaurant , Seaside Shanty, famous for its chowders (all gluten free)
this was recommended Maple Walnut Greens with honey shallot vinaigrette, so good
I had the seafood chowder, Joe, shrimp and scallop alfredo
we went with our friend Marie and Henry, that we met last year, on the eastern shore of Nova Scotia.
They had recommended to us Gold River Marina, and for sure this worked out so well for us.
back to work again, getting the dinghy pumped up and into the water.
we took advantage of no wind to put on our main and fore sail
we even managed to put in the reefing lines .. this marina is one of the few in the area that is so protected from high winds, which means it is hot too
another job completed … to be continued
