Arriving at Mario's Marina on the Rio Dulce

2-28-08  (posted 2-29)

Arrived. Tied up across a dock end, side-tied to starboard. Powered up with 50 amps of 120V electric for the first time since April in Dania Beach. Went for a beer to celebrate.

Two beers on an empty stomach, after a week of no alcohol … it’s not that I was all that much ‘in practice’, but I sure am aware of being ‘out of practice’ at the moment. Good thing the dock’s three feet wide or I might’ve gone swimming.

Three hundred and fifty e-mails in the week off-line. Most are group lists, okay to catch up on during the next few days, but a few needed prompt responses and … the next thing you know it’s midnight or more.

800 miles from Florida and the wi-fi is cleaner, faster, and cheaper. Go figure.

Rio Dulce is amazingly beautiful.

Tomorrow must do laundry, but for now: bed.

Yeah, I'm one of those wimps who can also fall into the water after just two beers ...

"Sweet River" - it really sounds like it is. I like imagining you with all that space and openness around you - remembering the Universe loves you (and me) beyond all imagining -
