Random thoughts and photos Posted on June 29, 2019June 30, 2019 by Maggie Selo I’ve got a bunch of unrelated photos to share – This was part of an exhibit at Nauticus, in Norfolk. Modern technology! Note how far it is to Prime Meridian Our friends took this shot of our boat as we were going through a lock together- that’s me up on the bow trying to lasso one of those short posts. One of our favorite lines is “next boat, bigger boat”. The next boat will have a non-human dishwasher, so no more stacks of dishes draining. Mallards! We must be getting further north. Who wouldn’t want a little Toe Jam on their toast – it’s delicious! We’ve been having issues with our air conditioning units in the main salon shutting down. It turns out this marina is loaded with little tiny jellyfish which get sucked into the A/C strainer, causing the units to shut down. Rich has cleaned them out twice already today – ugh. They turn into a gelatinous glob in the bottom of the strainer. When he dumped it into the water, it looked like cubes of clear gelatin that quickly sunk to the bottom. About 11 this morning at least 6 cigarette boats pulled into slips beside us and headed to the restaurant for lunch. I’m sure the people on them are very nice, but I hate those boats. They’re incredibly loud and serve no purpose as far as I can tell except to go very fast and be very loud. We had lunch today at the Barking Dog, a local hot dog place. This sign was by the entrance and I couldn’t resist taking a photo of it. Another beautiful sunset!
Beautiful scenery, beautiful pictures! Cigarette boats aptly named as cigarettes themselves serve no useful purpose 🙄. Nice to check in and see what y’all are up to. Stay safe! Reply
