We are still in Tarpon Springs.  Had some electrical work done that continues into today.  Also, thanks to my friend Mary and her keen nose, we found a fuel leak on the port side engine.  So we were able to get that fixed too.
We continue to have fun in this sweet little town.  Found a coffee pot to replace the one that got fried with our electrical problems.  So Dick is once again a happy little camper.  And that's really what's important.  A happy Captain is a happy boat.  We are seriously enjoying the wonderful Greek food in this town.  Makes me think of my aunt Hera with the almost unpronouncable middle name who is greek.  There is a large population of feral cats here that everyone feeds.  Our dog go's nuts watching them.
It is a little chilly here today and very windy.  Glad we had not planned to try to leave.  It would have been difficult to even pull away from the dock.
We have Michigan friends here and will have lunch with them in a little while.  We were out for dinner last Saturday night and they had a belly dancer performing.  Had to pull Dick away.  Very fun night.
We have not seen any manatees but continue to see dolphins.  There are many many varieties of birds here.  Big ones.  They are everywhere and fun to watch.  Our dog had her first sighting of a gecko.  That was a fun surprise.
Hopefully we will get out of here without spending too much more on the boat.
More to come.
Dick getting friendly with the locals.
