DAY 212 - October 29, 2017

Shortest blog post ever - today did we did next to nothing! I off-loaded some heavy stuff form the boat, including the two folding bikes, the air conditioner, the box of outboard service parts and tools, and the dinged up Honda Stainless prop that we replaced at Irish Boat Shop in Harbor Springs, and delivered them to Marc's garage to be picked up when we tow home.

Then we listened to the Seahawks game with just another miraculous last minute drive engineered by Russell Wilson to beat the Houston Texans. Finally we went to Up the Creek for our last hurrah - a dozen raw oysters and a cup of grits each, with a shared slice of key lime pie for dessert.

That was it!

We owe a huge debt of gratitude to Marc and Anita Grove for their hospitality. Fist, the use of their slip at Battery Park Marina was huge. We will have been here ten nights  when we leave tomorrow. The loan of the golf cart was also wonderful. We could have walked to some of the places we went, but some we would never have gotten to without the golf cart.  Finally, their hospitality and generosity have been marvelous. Thanks, guys!
