So 7 AM Monday morning and the mechanic arrived....and as fate would have it ...he is the same guy who helped us in June of 2010... That time he removed a watermelon sized collection of "snow fence" fish barrier from our prop....see blog June 16, 2010...

This time it is the port water pump....removed, new one ordered, to arrive Tuesday afternoon...he'll replace and we are back on tap to head north on Wednesday as planned...weather for Monday and Tuesday would not be good for traveling anyway...so we are feeling pretty lucky... We called the Golden Nugget Spa & Salon...we are booked for mani/pedis...and neck, back and shoulder massages this afternoon! It's only money!
