October 10, 2013 Day 141
Great Kills Yacht ClubStaten Island, New York
Just
a very quick update on day five here on Staten Island. This was another cloudy and windy day with
some light showers. Bill spent the
afternoon installing a new motor on the electroscan, part of the waste
treatment system. Joyce did laundry and
read. She also made reservations for a marina in Hilton Head where we will
spend a week in early December.
The
dockmaster stopped by and invited us to join the yacht club members on Saturday
for their annual barbecue to “end the season”.
We will be happy to go since we will still be here.
We
had docktails with Jerry and Wendy on their boat and then came back and had a quick
dinner.
The
wave forecast continues to be daunting and we will continue to wait. We might be able to go into the city before
we leave! We had not planned on having to do some of the repairs or the need to
find a replacement microwave/convection oven!
