Pensacola Blue Wahoos

This morning our mechanic did show up and we worked for several hours but ended up not having everything we needed to be able to get the exhaust hoses like we want them. The good news is they aren't in as bad shape as we thought so we're not having to replace everything. Mike, the mechanic, (as opposed to Mike and the Mechanics) is coming back Tuesday night so we can finish up the job. It changed our plans around some but not a big problem. We're going to stay at the marina until Wednesday now.

Susan, as some of you may know, is a huge baseball fan. Just so happens Pensacola has a Cincinnati Reds AA affiliate team, the Pensacola Blue Wahoos. The stadium is within 15 minutes walking distance from the marina. Today there was a 4:00 game against the Biloxi Shuckers. We went but decided we are definitely bad luck when it comes to baseball games. Last spring we went to the Atlanta Braves' home opener. They lost. Last summer we went and saw a Frisco Rough Riders game. They lost. A month or so ago we went to see my niece's son play in a little league tournament. They lost both games we attended. Are you getting the picture? Yep, the Blue Wahoos lost 10 - 2.

Tomorrow we're renting a car and going to go do some much needed shopping. Tuesday we plan to go to the National Naval Air Museum. Hopefully on Wednesday will be able to pick up the water maker that is being delivered here and then we can be on our way. If the weather cooperates.

That's all for now. Take care.
Brian
