Addendum - Not mentioned, but not forgotten

In my last entry I did not make reference to the joy we had in having Buzz and Tish Greenman, with their friend Lee “stop by” for a visit. They are members of Three Tree Point Yacht Club and it was a pleasant surprise to know fellow cruisers from home. We had hoped to drop in on 'Prime Meridian' after our hike to Von Donolop Inlet. As I mentioned earlier, the hike was more challenging and took longer than we wanted to reach the other side. Being more aware of our bodies disdain towards heat, we heeded the message sent to us. We returned to Liberte' to cool down, and then clean up, planning on rowing over to their boats.

Accidents; they are unplanned occurrences that impede on previous well thought out plans.
Pat slipped and fell down the stairs to the floor of the cabin. He had wet feet due to me having doused the cockpit down after cleaning the shrimp. He did knock the wind out of himself and now is artistically decorated with colors of the rainbow. Thankfully he broke no bones or ribs and is just aching from the fall. Recovery was the order of the night and we left before 7 AM, thus never were able to reciprocate the gesture of camaraderie. With any luck together, we will drop anchor at some other cove within these next three weeks; toasting good friends and healthy bodies!
