Leaving?

Last night we were welcomed back into the mooring neighbourhood in fine style by Lynn & Dan and their friend Ann. We met them on our second day here in Block Island and have continued to meet them ashore in passing from time to time. They stayed on the mooring when we all deserted them for the dock. We joined them for drinks and snacks aboard their Mainship power boat. Had a lot of laughs, and thoroughly enjoyed their company. We hope we cross paths again sometime.

It's raining right now, but I think it's going to let up and Papa is anxious to leave. Looks like Fisher Island is the next stop. We'll call Pete & Heather and see what their plans are. If they decide to stay, we'll just do a short hop tomorrow and meet up there. They don't seem to mind doing the long days like I do.

Hope everyone's fine back home. Read that "Kyle" came ashore near Yarmouth, but Shelburne got the worst of it. It's not often a hurricane hits us in Southwest Nova Scotia. Kind of ironic...everyone was worried about us encountering hurricanes and they get hit instead.
