Guess I should have known Heide would come up with a lot more work for me. I had hoped to finish in a few hours today, but now it looks as if I'll be lucky if I finish tomorrow. Anyway, it's cold and damp, so I couldn't varnish even if I weren't working.
On my way home, I stopped at the grocery store for a few groceries. Missed the next bus, so I walked, thinking I'd beat the bus (they run every half hour), but it passed me when I was a block from the end of the line, so I walked all that way with two bags of groceries for nothing.
The people at the boatyard are very nice, and the rates are reasonable. We even have a movable flight of stairs for getting on and off the boat, instead of having to climb a ladder. What luxury! The only problem is the restrooms--or lack of them. We can use the restrooms in the office when it's open, but that's only 8 to 5, Monday through Saturday. What are we supposed to do on Sunday? And the only shower is in the owner's home. Even though Mrs, Cobb keeps urging us to use it, both Roy and I feel uncomfortable with the idea of going into someone else's home to take a shower. By the time we leave this place, we're going to be in sorry shape.
