Day 5

Got lots done today.  Installed the Direct Tv  on the boat!!!  All the comforts of home!  The unit we have is so old that Direct Tv couldn't reprogram it for Oregon so they are sending us a new unit.  Verizon said the same about the telephone program we were on.  It was discontinued years ago.  It suited us just fine.  Amazingly, the new program cost more.  What a surprise?  Didn't figure it would be cheaper.  Oh well--the joys of progress?
WINDY today--sunny but wind of 15-20 knots all day.  Kept quite a chill in the air.  Tomorrow is to be better if you actually believe the weather people(yeah--right).  
We picked up one of the boxes from the storage unit and got it put away.  Hope to do one a day if possible.  Space is getting limited so we will be doing our best to find all the available nooks and crannies.  
With the freezer/refrigerator so small, we are going thru the frozen food we brought with us.  County Line ribs from New Mexico.  Just couldn't leave them in Aurora.  That would have been a crime!!!
Blue took her first walk on deck today.  Or at least in the cockpit.  Didn't see any sea gulls, etc so she was fine.  Had to shoo her back in later.  Now considers going outside her birth right.  Stands at the top of the companionway and meows.  Lot of good that will do her.  Snowshoe also went out but really doesn't care.  Had to shoo him back in also but he never asked to go out again.  He knows where the food is.  Smart boy!!
More coming.

Watch out - Blue will be sailing that ship before long!
