Roy rode his bike to Cooley's Landing and took a good shower, while I updated the log. When he got back, I took a shower and washed my hair. What great showers! Plenty of hooks to hang your clothes on, benches to sit on, plenty of hot water, everything clean and warm and well-lighted and comfortable. What a contrast to the place in St. Augustine, where the showers were in a cold, dirty, cinderblock barn of a building!
I talked with a guy who had been here many times. He warned us not to go to the Chinnock Boatyard. He said they were a bunch of thieves. He spoke well of Summerfield and Lauderdale Boat Basin.
After lunch, we rode the bus to the hospital where the talk on knee problems was to be given. We stopped at an upholstery place to get information about having an awning made. They gave us the name and phone number of a place to check with, so we'll phone them tomorrow.
The lecture was interesting but not really helpful. Roy said he already knew everything the doctor said. The talk lasted longer than we had expected, so by the time we went to a Publix and bought a bunch of groceries, it was 6:45, and the bus was running only once an hour, so we had to sit on a bench in the cold for 45 minutes waiting for the next one. Yes, at night it feels cold even in Southern Florida. We didn't get home until eight o'clock, so by the time we ate supper and watched the taped news, it was way past my bedtime.
