Wednesday, July 15

Low humidity with nice temperatures in the seventies ushered in the day. As we walked down to the cove to meet Ethan I noticed a rainbow over the house.

A nice way to start the day.

On our trip to shore Ethan spotted a dolphin playing in the water and pointed it out to us. When we arrived we did not stop at Percy’s’ for breakfast. We had an appointment in Bath at 1030 with a reporter from the Times Record in Bath. So we went straight to the laundromat, had breakfast at McD’s and to the appointment at 1030.

We met Rachael, the reporter and spent about half an hour with her. We offered to take her out to the island when we returned and she said “yes”. We made plans to meet her back at the dock at 1700. Then it was over to the FOSI office to see Connie. She was busy with the arrangements for the annual meeting which takes place on Saturday.

On to Burger King for lunch, Walmart for food and stuff and then we returned to Bracketts Market in Bath. Bracketts was recommended to us for lunch meats and other stuff, so we thought we would give it a try.

Back to the dock by 1700 where we met Ethan and Rachael. Immediately after leaving the dock we spotted a baby seal. We made a quick stop to pick up some fresh lobster (right out of the traps) and then back to Seguin. The cove was quiet and Rachael helped us off load the boat, up load the tram and off load the stuff at the top. She spent the next hour looking around, interviewing us and taking pictures. She said the article should be published in Friday’s edition.

We are anxious to see how it comes out!

We had our lobster dinner at 2030, watched some TV and went to bed. As I said before, our days ashore are long and busy. They are calling for some rain tonight and degrading weather for the next few days.
