Time for some "down time".  We only did a couple of things this morning.  Filled the water tanks (Carol has been doing a LOT of cleaning.  Imagine that.)  Hosed some of the pollen off of the boat.  Noted the deck drains are running very slow.  (Made note to add to project list.) 

We then made good on the decision we made last night while washing clothes to take the day off.  Since there was a boat show in town, we went to it.  I know, we have a boat, right?  But I did spy a water pump for sale at the "nautical flea market" that might work for the shower sump pump. 

Then we went to New Bern (40 minute drive to the big city) to get light bulbs and a few other things we could not find locally.

Still waiting on the new roller furler to arrive.  I suspect it will be in Monday, probably installed on Tuesday, and we should be back in business Wednesday and heading to Point Marina for continuing boat prep.

Got around to taking some pictures.

And to Al, and all of the rest of his fans, Clambake seems to be adjusting well.  He just needs a little extra assurance every once in a while.  (I think the wakes scare him.)
