This morning we got a car from Enterprise. We took a couple of loads of laundry to the laundry; they offered a service to do the laundry for just a few dollars. We went back to the boat and got the grocery list and bags and went shopping.
After the groceries were put away and I caught up on previous postings to the blog we had some lunch. It was then time for me to head to Hasting, ON, about 90 miles. Our good friends Anne and Steve Johnson were driving in to join us. They were caught in heavy traffic coming thru Toronto and were a little late.
We drove back to the boat and had a nice visit. They will cruise with us for the next five days.
The shipyard here at Kingston Marina continues to be impressive. The big fire boat was testing the main water canon again today. In addition to the big Tampa fire boat they have a couple of smaller fire boats in the works, plus an order for four, forty something foot passenger boats for the Panama Canal. With the expansion of the canal they will be used to move construction workers around the canal. The first one the hull is done and painted, they are finishing the installation of the engines and jet drives. The second one was moved today into the paint booth. Diana watch then realized at the last moment she should get a picture.
