First, an explanation of the title for this year's posts. After months of thought (well, maybe more like 30 seconds), I decided to add the number "2" to signify "Year 2".
We ended up staying in Wrightsville Beach for two additional days due to cool, wet weather. Thus, there is not much to report.
All was not lost as we did manage several shopping trips since there were numerous shops, including a West Marine, Harris-Teeter grocery store and a wonderful hardware store within a half mile of our dock. Plus, the Admiral had bought a Tail Gator satellite dish over the winter. It is intended for Recreational Vehicles (aka "Land Yachts"), and we placed it up on the flybridge where it has a clear view of the sky. It is self aligning, and it greatly expands our TV channels. It would not work while the boat is underway, but we are too busy running the boat to watch TV anyway. The boat moves around a little while tied to a dock, but in spite of this motion, the dish works very well. We already had web based options like Net Flick and over the air local channels. Soooo, bad weather is not a problem, especially with free wifi at most marinas.
As a programmer, I can really appreciate your "year 2" numbering scheme! I am excited you are underway and entertaining me with your blogs.
ReplyDeleteMary and Danny, glad you are following along. Also, it sure is nice that we are having more spring like weather.
