Frustration abounds today...we are both saying more than a few bad words...and one of us is teary eyed....transmission was shipped to supplier instead of to this marina...so it will not be arriving today. Hopefully, it will arrive on Thursday....with any luck we could be up and running on Friday...we had hoped to have started the Trent-Severn by then....Regardless we are living aboard this boat on borrowed time. With no transmission, we have no way to get to the dock for a pump out...we've been hiking "up the hill" as often as possible to save space in holding tanks...but this will not last forever. This is probably too much information...but other than boredom...it is what we are dealing with. We've cleaned out, thrown away, washed and polished, read, facebooked, e-mailed ... started an endless/scorekeeping game of Rummikub. Somehow he manages to stay just a little ahead. If this keeps up, Floyd may be forced to help finish that jigsaw puzzle.
