Still hanging out in Brockport

Well the rainy Saturday has come and gone and now we spend Sunday trying to dry out, well kind of.  The rain seemed to have quit about 3:30 p.m.  After at least half a dozen leaks in the boat popped up we decided to spend one more day in Brockport and see if we could track down the leaks and get some of them fixed.  We still would like more water outside the boat than in.  We started to morning off by walking over to the farmers market, it was small because of the rain, but I was able to pick up a couple of tomatoes.  After spending most of Saturday in the boat we decided we were going to go out rain or shine, so we put on our rain coats and off we went.

With rain coats on off we went.

YUM!!!

The produce that was there looked pretty good.

The rain kept lots of folks away.

Stopped at Java Junction for breakfast and coffee of course.

After breakfast we came back to the boat to wait out the rain.  I made a batch of cookies to pass them time and warm up the boat.  Yes this time the boat needed warming up.  While I was baking, Lori Skoog stopped in for a visit, it was so nice to see her again.  Since we were staying in Brockport one more night I decided to change the sheets on the bed and do some laundry.  Laundry facilities were so close to our boat I couldn't pass it up.  Yes I actually like doing laundry, specially on rainy days, helps pass the time.  While tearing apart the bunks I noticed that the blankets and mattress from my bunk were wet.  Oh CRAP another leak, so up comes all the bedding, mattresses and we (Mike) goes searching for the source of the leak.  Which as any one who owns a boat knows find the source of a leak is not the easiest thing to do.

This is what happens when there is a leak.

Sometimes it is like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

Okay this one is a little staged, but it's to give you an idea what happens.  I am up top with a screw driver and epoxy while
Mike is below holding the nut, teamwork that is how things get done around here.

While we were working on the leaks it began to rain, what you don't see in these photos is when Mike brings out the umbrella for me and we continue to do this process in the rain.  Oh the joys of living on a boat.  

For now some of the leaks are hopefully "slowed down".  We will work on the remainder when the boat drys out a little.  I did take some time and take some photos of the gorgeous flowers planted here at the welcome center.  Tomorrow we are off to Spencerport, NY
