Rode my bike to the Riviera Beach Library to try to get the tax form we need for the corporation. Wouldn't you know -- the library is open every day except Friday! If I'd gone there yesterday, it would have been open every day except Thursday. Museums, barber shops, and now libraries. Anyway, it's supposed to be open tomorrow, so I'll try again.
Rode the bus to the Publix market across from West Marine and bought all the groceries I could carry. I was going to get my new prescriptions filled at the Eckerd Drugstore next door, but they wanted nearly $200 and didn't have the stuff anyway, so I took the prescriptions back. After returning to the boat, I rode my bike to Walgreen's and got the whole works for $41.
To our surprise, the new drive shaft was delivered this afternoon, but when Roy installed it, it turned out to be 1/4 inch too long, so it has to go back to the shop and be trimmed.
Very, very windy today, so we're glad we're not in the water. It's blowing 25 to 30 knots out of the northeast.
Got another pack of mail from Kathy. Glad to get it, as it had some important stuff in it.
This Blog is our mother's logs from her sails aboard Jofian. Our mother, Clare Holt, wrote a log every day and after her first sail to Mexico, she bought a laptop to write and save her logs. She sailed when the World Wide Web was first created, there was not as much on the Internet back then, no Wi-Fi, Internet access was very limited. I know if she were sailing today that she would be putting her logs in a Blog, so I am doing it for her. Mom’s logs to Alaska are on saillogsalaska.blogspot.com.
