Lots of headway on the varnishing!

Penny came over yesterday. She is a varnish guru and had us working hard all day. We got a first coat on everything except the companion way doors and a second coat on some of it! Yeah! A very productive day!

Thursday is Market day in Sidney. At 5pm the main street shuts down and all the vendors set up. We always enjoy dinner at the Market as there are many excellent food choices. We both had the Extreme Market Burger and it we were not disspointed! Ran into Brenda, who was hyper as always!

Today we raced around getting the boat ready for haul out. We sailed it around to Vector Yachts and left it for them to do thier thing. We went and had breakfast at Third St Cafe, and while there, Bob decided he had to go back and supervise. So, I headed into town (to my house-sit) and he went back to babysit the boat! I got some laundry and housework done, so the house will be ready to leave for Pam when the boat is finished and we take off for Nanaimo. Bob joined me in town later. Don has given us "crew" passes for the Tall Ships Festival but we are too tired to go tonight. Hopefully tomorrow.

Finally the weather has warmed up! Figures, just when the boat is in dry-dock!!!
