Aquamarina Palm Harbour Marina in Cape Haze, Florida
Day #195: From last evening Mike beat me at cribbage (it was a skunk as well). Up at 6:00 A.M. for two loads of laundry. During laundry loads it was time for coffee, grapefruit, mini blueberry muffins and cookies. Mike and I walked 3.0 miles. At 10:39 A.M. Larry from "The Camelot" texted that he was ready for a trip to West Marine. After a quick lunch Mike and Larry headed out for a shopping trip. I cleaned the boat while Mike was gone. Mike was looking for Racor fuel filter elements which he was told by West Marine that they are none available. On the way back Mike and Larry stopped at Certified Diesel & Marine to see if they would have the fuel filters. Mike had stopped there a few weeks ago where he met Tom who has a boat at Aquamarina. Mike was told that they didn't have any fuel filters and that they are no where to be found. As Mike and Larry got into the car Tom came running out of the shop asking them to come back into the store. The owner of Certified Diesel & Marine had two set aside for his boat and offered for Mike to buy the filters, which he did! The winds started to pick up with a definite coolness so Mike and I headed up to the flying bridge to read. Beautiful sunny day but the wind had a bite with temperature in the mid-sixties. We read books until 4:20 P.M. when they decided to do an additional 2 miles walk. After dinner it was time for paperwork, blogging and quiet time.

Mom and baby dolphin in the marina today.

One osprey on the platform the other on the ground. This is what happens when two osprey start plucking at a fish and the fish falls on the ground.

| It took this osprey a bit to decide what to do after the fish fell to the ground from the platform. It finally was able to pick it up and take off with it but not sure what happened after as it did not take it back up onto the platform. |
