Brunswick celebrated their blessing of the fleet today. They had a farmer’s market, cook off, music and local chefs. Midday, we gathered along the coast and watch the Paster stand at the end of one of the shrimp boats and bless the shrimp boats and coast guard as each one passed by. Steve and Terri on “In Custody” joined us. It was a nice relaxing day.  

We bought a lot of local fruits and vegetables and have a new challenge – “Chow Chow”.  It is cabbage, onions, tomatoes, peppers, vinegar, sugar, mustard, turmeric, ginger etc.  We aren’t sure how to use it but it will be fun to find out!

The marina has a big fenced in yard for dogs to play. And, that evening, we let the dogs run loose! Living on a boat, they don’t get the opportunity to run so they enjoyed it.  

After we said goodbye to Steve and Terri, we spent the evening getting ready to leave early the next morning. Jen did laundry, Mike did some engine checks and Kelly cleaned.
