Up fairly early so lots of time to prep for a docking at Zwickers Wharf. It was past noon when finally docked. The wharf had been pretty busy through the morning with power boats embarking and debarking passengers. It was a little annoying but the one and only employee on hand was, perhaps, a bit overwhelmed and it's not like my schedule isn't flexible. 🤪
The mooring ball has certainly paid for itself and has made a good HQ so far this summer, but damn its nice to have the microwave again and not a care in the world if that graphics card goes into full fan blast electrical drain.
It may have been a few days according to how wonderful the shower felt. Get the munchies? Walk up and get a chocolate and vanilla ice cream cone. Docking has its privileges. 😎👍
Just drank up the day in the luxury of being plugged in.
Exchanged some texts with The Admiral. He may be a bit later than the 7th yet will bring his small outboard motor so any last minute prepping from the mooring ball will made comfortable.
Wired without a care for resources... from Starlink to Gaming Graphics Card...
Will use tomorrow to bring on some supplies. A couple of trips to Foodland perhaps. Will top up water tank and supplementary water bottles. She should be ready for Mahone Bay with the possible taking on of diesel at the Shipyard's Gas Dock.
But tonight will probably have some gaming going on and the hope to connect with my Daughter and Son-In-Common-Law for a little hacking and slashing and catching up over voice Discord.
Signing off with a little look out my backyard...
