move back to sand dollar

First thing this morning kirk installed the new gps cable and wha la  the nav started to work again.  

the weather is calling for big north winds again.  so we have moved back to sand dollar anchorage.  a whole bunch of boats came over to this anchorage.  we went into town today.  it was completely closed down.  so quiet.  was fun to walk along what is usually a bustling street and see maybe one or two cars.  

kirk said tonight being here was like living on a different planet.  i must say it is very different than anything i have ever experienced.

january 3rd

just got updated weather   now calling for gusts up to 40.  the one cold front slowed down and another formed.  oh boy.  kirk is debating putting out a second anchor or at least resetting our anchor.

  3. The visit to the empty town was interesting. That looks like a good opportunity to make friends with one of the few shops open. Have you had time to interact with the locals.

  4. The locals are very pleasant and courteous. Donna has become big buddies with Miss Lee, the owner of the laundry. Many of the other business owners are also quite friendly. And while we haven't tried it yet, reportedly it is very easy to stick out your thumb and get a ride to almost anywhere....and back. Kirk.
