Monday – Day 66 – 10/6/08

Barb and I took our last ride in Moor $tuff today. The weather was less than perfect but the scenery was spectacular! What ever was troubling the boat, seamed to have disappeared while we were tied up in the marina? Once under way the problem disappeared. With that said - she still needs to be checked out, and that is scheduled for Thursday when she is hulled. If every thing goes as planed we could be home bound via train this coming Friday Afternoon.

We rented a car today from Enterprise Car Rental and they came to the marina to pick us up and take us to their office. I was under the impression that we were a few miles away, not a 45 minute ride through the country! It was all a pleasant experience, but I had no idea how far out in the boonies we are! I don’t think there’s a street light for fifty miles. This place is dark!

Barb and I are staying on the boat for a few more days and the marina which is as large as Spring Brook Marina doesn’t have a yard light! Tomorrow Barb and I will begin the task of packing boxes to ship home. If we have time we may take the car and see some of the local historical sights. Wednesday will be a full day as we begin the process of winterizing the boat. Once started we can’t live aboard anymore so are looking for a B&B close by!
