Titusville Marina - Getting ready for the coming storm

 

One wonders what the Ospreys do, fully exposed to the wind and rain

There's a front headed our way so I spent the morning getting the boat ready for the anticipated high winds and rain. The goal is to spring off the pilings and cleats enough so the boat does not touch the fixed dock. Just in case, of course, I put fenders in place at all the potential hitting areas. 

A care package from home

Sarah continues to study hard in her college work. Next semester will be all in-person classes but this time period has all remote classes. She spends the better part of a day hitting the books and laptop. She also is very handy having around when I have to adjust the lines and for other odd chores. 

Our last sunset for a while

We're having a canvass guy come over Friday morning to see what can be done with our enclosure which is now about 15 years old. We now have a dodger and bimini combination but the dodger part of the setup partially obstructs the view forward. It would be nice to get rid of that obstruction. We'll see what he has to say.

We restarting our walking/running program today. It felt good to get out and exercise. We got Hoolie into the regime too with a trip to the dog park. He ran and ran. It's to be a quiet night until about 10:00 pm when the winds and rains start but we're snug here.
