Ben at the helm doing his captain thing! |
Crocket taking an afternoon rest all snuggled in with my sweatshirt. |
This marina was not much to speak of, but the free laundry helped. As soon as we were tied to our spot, I started doing laundry and prepared some chicken for Ben to grill (this will be used for lunch underway). Then Liz stopped by to let us know they are taking the courtesy car (the free car also helped) into town.
"Wait!, we wanna go!" I exclaim.
We all headed into town, not much of a town, seems a bit run down with lots of empty or abandoned homes and businesses. We were on a mission for the grocery store until we got side tracked at the local ACE Hardward, then a stop by the free dock in town and spotted several Loopers docked there. We made it to the Food Lion parking lot (I have never been in a Food Lion) when we saw a Chinese restaurant in the same complex so we had to see what they have. Next thing I know we were ordering Chinese for dinner. We grocery shopped while our food was being prepared.
Back to the boat so I could finish the laundry. We ate our dinner on board and met up on Bob and Liz's boat for some cards before calling it a night.
Two more stops before we go through the Dismal Swamp!!
Dowry Creek pool and boat house. Every night at 5:30 is cocktail hour for the locals, Ben stopped by but no one spoke to him so he left. |

Nobody likes doing the laundry. On the list of household chores, it is one of the least appealing. Though not exactly scut work, it takes time and it literally never ends. 24 hour Toronto coin laundromat
