20090724: the best $20 ever spent and... play ball!






the winds decided for us today. ah yes! we intended to go south, and the winds are blowing from the south, so instead of beating it today it was pay $10 each at the deltaville marina and get:

> use of their dinghy dock.

> use of their toilets.

> use of their bicycles to go into town in the morning for a wonderful cup of coffee at coffee creations and, bonus! an amazing slice of apple pie for breakfast! and the people watching wasn't bad either. we even got to gossip with the gossip ladies at the table outside on the porch. one of the women was looking through her binoculars from her porch on the creek and saw a boat heading out of the creek this morning with a woman who was wearing a tee shirt, but when she bent over there was nothing on under her tee shirt ("naked as a jay, under her tee shirt," the woman said). we were also offered a ride to the drug store from the woman as well.

> use of their lounge, and wifi. pam got a pile of work done.

> use of their laundry room, for a few well needed loads (whew!).

> use of their car to go 6-7 miles to the drug store.

> use of their boatyard grounds to meet all kinds of good folks! one of which is another hans christian owner, and a couple who own a baba (a similar kind of boat).

> use of their bikes again, to go to the town baseball game between the deltaville deltas, and the ??? pirates. fun! they play in a wwii vintage stadium. they lost tonight, but it was a good, nail biter game. pam is the best "fan in the stands" you could ever want! i love that girl! here's more info on the team and park: http://www.deltavilledeltas.com/

> and finally, use of their showers before we go to bed!

what a deal, eh!
