Recuperation at Ortega

Change the oil, or go to the pool????
 
 
 
 
That stinking oil change can wait!
 
 
 
 
Just following doctor's orders: relax!
 
 
 
 
It was a beautiful evening for boaters to gather for the annual "Burn Your Socks" party.
 
 
 
 
 Food, fellowship, and boating stories were shared at the Marina clubhouse.
 
 
 
 
 Our one-man band sounded like a quartet, thanks to the wonders of modern electronics!
 
 
 
 
An old sailor's tradition: burn your winter socks upon the arrival of Spring! 
 
 
 
 
Captain Eddy tosses his socks over the balcony into the firepit. 
 
 
 
 
The nearby historic neighborhood of Avondale was a joy to explore during our daily walks. 
 
 
 
 
 Oak trees provided pleasant shade during our strolls.
 
 
 
 
Can you see Linda?  This was a very gorgeous and very large oak in Avondale.
 

 
 
 
After a long walk, it's time for a break!
Chocolate gives you energy, doesn't it?
 
 
 
 
 


 
Getting Spiritus ready to continue her northbound journey.
Linda cleans the life ring while Eddy washes bird poop off the dinghy cover.
A clean boat is a happy boat!
