Harbor Cruise

Yesterday The Man worked on the Dinghy's outboard motor and got it running smoothly.

After he took it for a test ride he came back and picked me up.

Sunday

We're in Olympia. The boat is in Olympia.

The truck is still in the Des Moines Marina parking lot. Our plan was to pick up the truck on Monday by catching the 8:40a Amtrak from Olympia/Lacey to Tukwila near SEA-TAC. We would be catching two Lyft rides.

I checked to see how much a Lyft from Olympia to Des Moines would be. It was almost the same as what we were paying, not counting the tips. I mentioned this to The Man.

Thirty minutes later we were heading north on I-5 with our Lyft driver, Richard.

The Des Moines Marina and Waterfront was very nice, the rest of the area not too much.

The sign reads,  "Designated Prostitution Vehicle Impound Area".

Here and There: Part 2

So. Yes. I flew home to Atascadero last Sunday.

The next day, Monday, The Man got a call from Swantown Marina in Olympia with an offer of a permanent slip. We were on the Waitlist expecting a waiting time of one to three years. The Marina office said three 44' slips were available so The Man immediately drove down to Olympia.

He selected a slip and signed us up. I offered to make the two day journey with him. We would be visiting Gig Harbor first.
