Restocking Our Treats

Charleston 

Inspired by another orange sunrise (this time across the marina), we got busy early. Barry and I went out and gave Crossroads a bath using both soap and a brush. He scrubbed the nonskid and I came back to wash the other surfaces with a sponge. She is looking and feeling (to the touch) much better. Our big plan of the day was to catch the 11:00 shuttle to West Marine and Harris Teeter. We met up with Glenda, Greg, Jaxon, and Cooper to make it a big outing. A big surprise upon our arrival at shopping center was seeing a Petco. The boys were excited to do some shopping and Glenda helped them pick out some of their favorite bones. Its not just the people that had run out of their favorite treats. Barry and Greg headed to West Marine while Glenda and I darted into the Harris Teeter. Oh, my gosh. It was sensory overload. We each had our lists in hand and knew we only had about 45 minutes to be done and waiting for the return shuttle. The produce, fruit, and vegetable section was heavenly. We each loaded up our baskets before exiting the front portion of the store. The clock was ticking so we raced through the rest of the store on a mission. We could have stayed another hour just going up and down all the aisles we skipped. We loaded all of our purchases into the van and headed back to the marina. Jaxon and I enjoyed the view from a window seat. Thankfully the MegaDock has plenty of dock carts which made toting our bags to the boat much easier. Barry used the parts he got from West Marine to fix our swim platform.

We all got together for dinner in town. The shuttle took us both to and from the restaurant. Before heading back to the boats, we picked up the last of our Amazon shipments. Little things in little boxes do make us happy. The wind laid down, the water was calm, the sky was clear, it was chilly, and Charleston gave us another orange sunset to end the day.
