Highlights: Jenn & Courtney arrived around 1:00. Trip to grocery store and Home Depot, then motored over to Cantler's for dinner. No room at dock, and couldn't get anchor to hold, so motored back. Courtney had a gig at 7:00, so they couldn't stay for dinner, so Amy fixed western egg omelettes w. hash browns - yummy!

We recently gave away or sold most of our belongings, listed our house for sale,  accepted an offer, purchased a Leopard 40 catamaran, and retired from our jobs.  We move to our new boat in early October.  Goodbye, House! Let the fun begin!
