Wednesday, January 13, 2010 Vero Beach

Today was gorgeous out. It got to the 60s and the sun was warm and delightful. We ran into Mad Cap in the marina lounge, as we were getting ready to head into town. They are moored about 3-4 boats down from us. I spotted a Bayfield this morning and wasn’t sure if it was them or not. I was delighted that it turned out to be them. We’ll have to try & catch up with them while we’re both here :)
We headed into town (West Marine, ABC and the Publix) and chatted with Dave & Ellen (Cordelia). They were heading the same places today so it was nice to see and talk to them again. Marge & Dave were on the bus back to the marina. We joined them for happy hour at the Dockside Grill again but this time we took the dinghy over (I am curious how long of a walk it is though). I wanted to check out the depths of the channel going to the canal that the Restaurant borders but forgot our portable depth sounder. Hmmm… this might require one more trip then… We found out that you can tie up at their dock and stay for the night if you’re eating there. With their “happy apps” and happy hour it seems like a good deal. There’s no power or water, but heck we don’t have that on the mooring either. If we’re paying $15 for a mooring here – makes sense that we could spend the $15 for the “happy apps” and happy hour or for a meal and park it dockside… Marge & Dave are thinking the last night here – to just go over there. Makes sense… We had a great evening with them & the ribs and crab cakes were excellent the second time around. Dave tried the calamari this time and it was tender & good too. I have to be careful – his ribald humor is rubbing off on me LOL
