Alas, we are sitting on Galt in St. Maarten lagoon waiting. Harry's Houdingy's motor was sputtering and cutting out so we took it back to the motor doctor and we need a new carburetor. Of course, the carburetor is in Miami. We ordered a new one and were told it should be delivered in four business days which would make it Tuesday of this coming week. They then shifted it to next Friday. So, we wait. We can't leave Galt in anything but perfect conditions because Bill has to row. Rowing Harry is not easy because he was not designed to be rowed. He was designed to go fast. We did venture out for dinner one night which took 20 minutes to travel 200 yards but other than that one outing, we have been doing small projects on the boat and trying not to be frustrated. I decided to watch a Harry Potter movie every day this week which should help me pass the time until the carburetor arrives. If they send the wrong part, I think our patience may come to an end but we are trying to remain positive. Sorry for no real blog this week but it is what it is. Have a wonderful Groundhog day and pray for no shadow!
