Dora found a tick attached to her back during the night. I removed it all with tweezers but there is always concern regarding Lyme’s disease.
On our morning trip to shore, Dora made some calls from a pay phone downtown while I went to the library to use the internet. Dora found out from her sister that her father had been falling and had injured himself. Our trip may be on hold if Dora has to go to Corpus Christi, Texas to help with him.
Soon after we got back we noticed a ski boat with two men and four little boys trying to paddle their boat toward town. We went over in the dinghy to see if they needed any help. Their engine had overheated and wouldn’t start. We towed the boat back to the Hertford launch ramp. It took over 30 minutes to go one half mile because it is difficult to tow a large ski boat straight with a 11 foot inflatable.
I washed part of the blind mosquitoes stains off the aft deck area as well as the table and chairs and everything else stored there. Later we bathed in the river. Before sunset we went for a ride in the dinghy and a boat waved us down to say hello. We talked for a while and invited Kent, Laurie, and Tony to ride over to see Seascape. Kent owns a nice home on the river just north of where are anchored.
We only had to run the generator for about two hours to recharge the batteries after 21 hours on the inverter.
