Wednesday – Day 61 – 10/1/08

It rained all night and stopped in time to walk the 100 yards to the museum entrance! What a treat the museum turned out to be. Carol Greenough the director opened up the museum and introduced us to the local history which I’m very interested in. She’s been very involved in preserving the local history of the canal in this region. Without people like her most of our heritage would be lost forever. Steve and Emily Struck from Hampton, Virginia and Drex and Joyce from Norfolk, Virginia joined us for the museum visit. Tonight we will join them for dinner on their 47 ft Trawler, SEA STRUCK!

After the museum, Barb and I walked to the local library and sat on their front steps to connect to wireless. The library isn’t open during the day and we were grateful for the fair weather. Tomorrow we hope to move north toward our winter home for the boat. We will probably get there Friday and begin the process of winterizing her during the following week! I don’t think either one of us want to see this 2008 season come to an end!
