Day 15 - Shopping, Relaxing, and Visiting
When you start cruising you begin to find out it’s a small world. We had a visit this morning from Tom McIlwain, a friend of Lanny’s, our dock mate from home. While talking to him he mentioned he knew a couple that owned a Monk in the past…come to find out, it was the couple that owned our boat a few years ago.
We spent the morning cleaning the boat. Stan washed the decks and I cleaned the cabin. Even when you’re cruising you have to do the routine chores. The rest of the day we spent looking through little shops, riding bikes and poking around town. We had lunch at Leo’s Wood Fired Pizza. We sat on the patio and enjoyed the day and the pizza.
We visited with a few other boat owners this afternoon and had another visit from Tom and his wife this evening. Everyone was very helpful and gave us good ideas of places to visit on our way to Florida . With all the great ideas it may take us another two weeks before we get there!
