July 15 -- Potts Harbor to Snow Island, 13 Miles.

We had two breakfasts today: the frst early normal one was after the kitties woke us up for their breakfast. The second was when the Dolphin Marina launch delivered more of those free blueberry muffins and coffee.
Then a seventeen mile round trip bike ride on the Marina's bikes to Ship to Shore, a convenience store. My muscles are not sore but my butt is. That Lene made this trip shows you how far her sciatica has receded. She is cured!
A grey threatening foggy day but visibility was good enough to go, Lene practiced using the MFD to sail along the plotted route. No wind so we motored. The sun came out and the wind came up when we anchored.
We've been to Snow Island before. A pure lovely anchorage area around the island, not deserted, but not crowded either. It is known for warm (by Maine standards) water, but I did not test this out. [This next pic, added in March 2021, an arial view sent to us by the Great Island Boatyard on Harpswell Island, where the shoe was attached, in the right foreground, also shows Snow Island, a bit south and east, sheltered by the large piece of mainland at upper left.

This time Snow Island was very suitable because it is only two miles from the Great Island Boat Yard, where we have an appointment tomorrow.
Then chores: cleaning, cooking, placing distilled water in the batteries that needed it, tightening the bolts that hold the forward head toilet bowl onto the pump that is its base to stop a microleak (only while pumpimg) and completing the application of plastic waterproofimg spray to saturate the top of  bimini so it will keep the rain from dripping through.

We also got ready for our upcoming Canadian adventure.
