Yesterday and particularly last night was &#8220;heavy&#8221;. Tom and I checked the lines about 8pm and our bowline could have been played like a violin string. Needless to say we added two more lines to share the load &#8211; total 3 lines on the bow, 3 lines on the stern and 2 &#8220;spring lines&#8221;\u00a0 (in the middle). This morning the wind had settled down and the sun (as usual) was out. We made pancakes and went for a walk into town. The marina we are at is part of a resort, retirement community and they are now building a casino. I included a few pictures to give you an idea of the place. We also met one of the owners and chatted. Everyone is super friendly!<\/p>\n<p>On our walk we checked the ocean, met some locals, bought groceries, and had take-out and ice cream. I also found a potato grater to make Latkies &#8211; made ME happy. Tonite we will watch &#8220;Cast Away&#8221; with Tom Hanks and eat popcorn.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-966 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/paulweigel.com\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/DSC_0001-6.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/paulweigel.com\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/DSC_0001-6-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-970\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-970'>\n\t\t\t\tNote the lines everywhere\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/paulweigel.com\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/DSC_0002-6.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/paulweigel.com\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/DSC_0002-6-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-971\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-971'>\n\t\t\t\tOne of 2 marinas of Bimini Bay Resort\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/paulweigel.com\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/DSC_0004-6.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/paulweigel.com\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/DSC_0004-6-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-972\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-972'>\n\t\t\t\tThis little guy was floating around in the marina &#8211; something like a jellyfish\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/paulweigel.com\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/DSC_0006-6.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/paulweigel.com\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/DSC_0006-6-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-973\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-973'>\n\t\t\t\tMore marina\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/paulweigel.com\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/DSC_0007-61.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/paulweigel.com\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/DSC_0007-61-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-974\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-974'>\n\t\t\t\tEven more marina\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/paulweigel.com\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/DSC_0008-6.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/paulweigel.com\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/DSC_0008-6-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-975\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-975'>\n\t\t\t\tShops and a SPORTS BAR soon coming!!!
