Oops

Arrived at the boat yesterday to find that our "leave the boat shut down procedure" works too well.  We returned from our last trip from home and found that the main house battery switch was turned off. Including the refrigerator full of food!  After grocery shopping we head to West Marine to purchase some lock out switches

Last evening we were enjoying life on the dock watching boats go by when a guest boat across at Jarrell's Cove State Park unfurled their yacht club burgee. Walt went below to get the burgee list and lo and behold they were from the yacht club we joined in February, Longview Yacht Club. We jumped in the dinghy and went over and introduced ourselves to Ron and Kathy Evans aboard the George Emery  They are starting their two year cruise in the north. They are headed to the Broughtons for this summer.  We enjoyed meeting them and will most likely cross paths again on our trips into BC. 

     Speaking of BC we realized that we forgot out passports. So we have to go back to Dallas one last time to get them or have family or friends retrieve and mail them to us!  Better now than when we were trying to cross the border.
