Today was a big day on Ryen's Quest. The sails were put on and everything is a go in that department. They are just thinking about provisioning and waiting for me to leave before they top the water and diesel. After the work was done, we took a dinghy ride to the Dinghy Club for showers. They give you a token to put in a machine, and if you haven't rinsed the soap off or out of your hair, too bad. I would guess one token gives you ten minutes of shower time.
Tonight the Historical Society had a community celebration. All the stores and businesses were lighted up and there was entertainment at different historical locations in the surrounding area. Everyone was in a great mood and high spirit. Lots of artists with their paintings for sail.
Later we had some of the cruisers aboard for drinks, and if Amber from Halifax reads this, we also enjoyed meeting Adam. Nice guy, he's a keeper! Tomorrow we have been invited to Rod and Sweda's home for dinner. Rod works in the sail shop, and is originally from the Philippines. Really nice people. I will post some photos when Al downloads them for me.
All is good. Ryen's Quest looks like she is ready for another passage!
