First Night At Anchor

It was such a beautiful night at anchor. The only noise we heard was the frog chorus. We both slept soundly and didn't hear the power boat leave, so we had the anchorage all to ourselves. Once we were up and finished breakfast, we decided to move the boat a little closer to the middle of the bay. We dropped in 14 feet, and we were further from the shallow spots and rocks. We don't often have an anchorage to ourselves, so Randy took advantage of the privacy and washed the boat with very little on. After lunch, we decided to go fishing in our favorite spot, but as we were getting ready to leave, a sailboat came in. We recognized the boat, and once they were settled, we stopped by to say hello. They were new owners from Bayfield. We knew people in common and had lots of stories to share. While we were talking, Rita James came in, and we knew it was Chicos's birthday, so there would be some fun to be had. We did get a little fishing in, but unfortunately, there was no catching. We also did a little tour around Peter Island. It is just too pretty here. We joined Chico and Jamie on the bow of Rita James for drinks, appetizers, and laughs. It was such a fun afternoon and evening. Such a beautiful boat, she is a 57-foot flag blue center cockpit, Bristol. Jamie and Chico are very talented at boat restoration, and they have done an amazing job. The mosquitos found us, and it was time for a late dinner, so we headed back to Hogsbreath. I made some really good chicken lettuce wraps with Margo cookies for dessert. Cell coverage was good, so we watched Jepordy and Delos before calling it a night. It was another great day on the tug. Tomorrow, it's off to Tobemory to meet Dianna and Tug.Read more
