Today we headed into town to pickup all the boat parts we had shipped here in our absence. The anchorage was so rocky that Dave had a heck of a time even getting the big boxes out of the dingy and onto the deck without having anything go in the water. It took hours to unpack and stow everything from printer ink cartridges to a new heat exchanger for the engine. This means Dave has a number of additional boat projects for which he now has the parts.
Meanwhile, Melissa had headed into the mall to get a pile of errands done - including ordering a new pair of glasses. She got a doctor's appointment to be measured for the new prescription with only a 15 minute wait - during which she picked out a new frame. The doctor didn't speak much english, but if you've been through an eye exam before its obvious when he asks is "this or that lens better?" The total bill - including the new glasses with anti-scratch lenses and a name brand frame was $120. Gotta love that. They should be ready for pick up no later than Monday.
