The big event today was heading on down to Summerland
Key to meet Linda Vanaman and getting to know her and faithful golden retriever
Mercy. Linda fed us a delicious lobster
dinner, which will not soon be forgotten.
In getting acquainted with this remarkable person, we discovered that
she had lived for a time near Chipley and indeed knew a relative or two of Mary’s. We indeed hope she will do us the honor of
visiting us anytime she is in our area visiting relatives or passing through on
her fine tug-trawler mercy.
Tomorrow will see us doing a few tasks preparatory to
getting underway toward home on Wednesday morning.
