This morning Mike was on the ham radio talking to some fellow hams in the Milwaukee area when a ham operator from less then 2 miles away here in Florida gave him a call...  After we talked a bit he asked if we needed anything and we said yes.  We were low on gas for our dinghy.  We talked later on the phone and he asked if we needed anything else like water or beer... about 3 hours later he showed up with his girlfriend on his boat and tied up...handed over a big pile of bottled water and a gas tank full of gas, which I then proceeded to poor into our dinghy gas tank...all for five bucks...What a nice couple....

Below is a picture of Duane and his girlfriend... Elwood was visiting them...

Later this evening Joell and I took the dinghy ashore to the Mar Vista Restaurant and had a nice meal...

Tomorrow we move to a different anchorage due to the high winds coming in... till then :-)
