Day #252: From last night Mike beat me at cribbage. Up at 6:00 A.M. for coffee, grapefruit, mini lemon poppy seed muffins and cookies. The two of us walked to Publix to get a few items for St. Patrick's Day party on Saturday followed by a stop at ACE Hardware. At 9:15 A.M. I started working on getting a Lyft to my hair appointment at 10:00 A.M. It took until 9:45 A.M. for Patty to get picked up (no stress here-not!) and I just made it to my appointment. After my hair appointment I had my nails done followed by a Lyft to get back to the marina (no issues with the return ride). While I was gone Mike filled the water tank as it was down to 25% due to the fact that most of the water had gone into the bilge when the water heater hose popped off. Mike also completed installation of the independent depth sounder project with good results. Mike than headed to the pool to wait for my return. At 12:30 P.M. Mike and I had lunch onboard the "Parrot Bay" followed by an afternoon in the pool. The two of us met future loopers Joe and Ellen as they brought their new boat into Aquamarina Palm Harbour. Sue and Betsy also joined Mike and I at the pool. At 4:00 P.M. Mike and I decided to go out to dinner. At 4:30 P.M. the two of us headed to Leverock's Restaurant for their "Sunset Special", a three course meal of salad/soup/entrée/dessert. Mike had onion encrusted salmon and I had coconut shrimp we both had New England Clam Chowder and Key Lime Pie. After dinner the two of us checked in on "Optimystique" to make sure that it was doing well without David and Jan. Than it was time for reading and blogging onboard the "Parrot Bay".
