Oh what a beautiful morning, oh what a beautiful day! Okay just pretend I know how to sing and think Oklahoma! The weather has finally taken a turn and the humidity is down along with the temperature. We are here in Midland Ontario at Wye Heritage Marina for the next 3 night, resting and attending to some boat chores, like grocery shopping, tackling this ever growing pile of laundry, and raising the mast. We had heard great things about this marina and they have lived up to their reputation. Being that we are Loopers the third night for us is FREE! And as we all know FREE is good! They have beautiful showers, a small boat store, a courtesy shuttle to town, laundry facilities and a pool! And guess what we took advantage of all of it, except for the boat store.
I tackled the laundry first thing and Mike was kind enough to help me take over the load to the laundry facilities. This is a great marina but a large one so things are pretty spread out. While at doing laundry we met another couple from California they too were doing the loop. It's amazing who you meet while cleaning your clothes. Laundry took about 2 hours so afterwards we came back for a small lunch and then went to the office to see if the shuttle could take us to town so we could pick up some food. That went well and we were able to stock up on all the things we wanted. Why is it though the minute you get back from the store you can think of about a dozen other things you should have gotten. Oh well next time. We arrived back to the boat around 2:30 ish, put things away and just hung out for a while. Then Mike said how about going to the pool? Why not was my thought, so off to the pool we went. It wasn't very crowded and the pool actually was kind of heated (about 80 degrees) so it was really quite comfortable. I must admit we acted like a bunch of kids, it was so much fun just to relax for a while.
After swimming we returned back to the boat for a light dinner and then spent some time topside just watching the evening sky. There was a full moon or at least it looked like one, Blue Moon I believe. Tomorrow we would work on putting up the mast and figure out where we would head off to on Saturday.
