Entertainment Dock Style

Yesterday was such a normal day for us I don't even know what to write.  There could be what entertains us though.  Right off I would would say Ruby and Chevy on Drift Away.  They are now a lot closer since they moved some of the boats around.  Ruby is still moping a bit, but she is getting a little better.  I ( along with most of C-Dock) are kept amused by those two.  Then Jingles comes along from the other end of C-Dock and it is like Dancing with the Stars, only the pups not humans. 

The other thing that can keep us amused is the normal going ons of the marina.  Gene needed a pump out so they needed to bring the hose from D to C Dock.  They do this by tying a rope to the hose which is attached to the pump.  One dock hand did catch the rope and pull it in but had trouble opening the nozzle.  He asked for DW-40, then really tried.  The other hand came over and poof, it opened. (note that I am not using any names here),  Well, Bill decided that was ok, so we would get a pump out too.  All went well.  Then he said, well I guess I will fill the water tanks.  Two minutes later, clang, and our only universal key is sinking.

Soon after 2 dock hands take Drift Away's dinghy away for repair.  That does not seem funny you say.  But every time anyone walks by Drift Away, or even close, Chevy sounds his alarm.  This time Chris and Andrew did the maneuvering and towed the dinghy way.  Not a sound of Chevy or Ruby.

As you can see there are not any pictures today.  Why?  During all of the observance of these I was sunning myself in the cockpit.
