Reminds of some of the places we docked at on north Vancouver island.
Government docks, that are really set up for the commercial boats.

We had that once on a cruise. They dropped us off in a container port
in Guatemala. Most of the people just stayed on the ship. We are a
little more adventurous and we took a navy boat over to a Best Western
across the bay and then went for a hike in the rain forest behind the
"hotel" (actually just a bunch of cabins and a restaurant)
It was one of the coolest excursions we ever took on a cruise.

The town itself is pretty under whelming, They tried to set up a straw
market for the cruise people but it was not Nassau or anything. The
people were very friendly tho and it would have been hard to spend
$20. We had just a $5 beer at the best Western and when we got another
in town and handed the lady a $10, she was wondering if I wanted to
buy her house. I let her keep the change and she gave me a hat.

I have a picture around here somewhere (not on my computer) of Judy
standing next to a kid with a machine gun.

Yes, we're headed south now, south to Nova Scotia that is. Not a
minute too soon either. The wind is howling today and we had the
electric blanket on last night. Up on the flybridge I'm wearing two
fleece jackets, a ski hat and gloves.

This July in northern Canada has been one of the coldest winters for
me in a long time. :-) We've had heat on in the boat at least part
of every day. There must be a happy medium out there someplace.
Hopefully we'll find it in Nova Scotia or Maine.

Interesting. I wouldn't have thought because you're not *that* far north. At least I didn't think there'd be that type of a weather front this time of year. Stay warm and dry!

Don't be rushing home too soon. There hasn't been a day in July
that hasn't reached at least the low 90s. Most days the heat
index is well into the 100s. It's hot!

Maybe you should have taken my advice and turned left.
It is warm in the lakes region. My daughter is complaining about the
heat in Michigan

So is Northern Michigan ... about the same and they do not understand
A/C.

I talked with him yesterday. All is well and cruising. .

Yes indeed. We've also had great weather the last two days with light
winds and mid day temperatures approaching 70 degrees. Heat wave. :-)
It would be nice if it lasted a while longer, at least until we get
around the rest of the Gaspé Peninsula and start heading a bit farther
south. We're docked tonight in a commercial fishing harbor called
Matane that offers little in the way of conventional amenities but is
interesting nevertheless. We saw a bunch of whales and seals today,
something we don't get much of in Florida.

I've been enjoying northern Indiana's Amish country for the past week, so haven't heard anything
about your boat. Glad to hear all is well again.
