Happy Thanksgiving

We are still in Carriacou, anchored in Tyrrel Bay with the watermaker running and getting ready to heat up lunch. Weather is still warm and the wind is reasonable but a bit gusty at times.

We had a nice lobster for dinner last night with a side dish of Bobby's fried rice. Will have the leftover lobster tomorrow in lobster salad/rolls.

So far this season we have not had anyone anchor to close - that ended this morning when a French boat anchored along side in what we call a sneak attack! He anchored at an odd angle and we are now well over his anchor and chain at just about any direction the wind wants to blow - will be interesting if he decides to move before we do! Hope so!!!!!

Completed more projects yesterday - sewed a sunbrella cover for the helm seat teak to protect it from water when we come back aboard after swimming. I finally permanently installed the wiring for our Media Player (Western Digital) and Lesley re hemmed our new shower curtain. The head is nice and clean, with new caulking around the shower pan, and the new electric toilet motor and seals are installed. Also installed a 10 second flush timer that I mad this past summer - the switch portion of the control is the Lectrasan display unit with a new NE555 digital timer and relay driver circuit.

Have been enjoying the Kindles that Reuben sent us - I have not touched a printed book since I picked mine up in October!

WiFi here is spotty - not sure what the problem is but seems like it is problematic every year.
