PIE! Yum...
But first clean filters and de-frost Fridge and Freezer.
The fridge and freezer compressors are air cooled and live up in a tiny cabinet. i had to buy a miniature screw driver to open the case for cleaning. The photo makes it look like i've never cleaned it before.... It was a little dusty.
After doing the routine maintenance on the Fridge and Freezer i gathered up the bike into the dingy and went out to have some lunch and PIE. I was also in search of a Micro SD card, some Carburetor cleaner and to copy 2 keys. (it's always good to have spares in an environment where dropping a key means a loss.)
As i coasted up to the pie shop i broke the shift changer on my bike. it would not come out of first gear. So i looked up a bike shop while i ate lunch. It looked just down the road on the tiny phone screen.... 7.5 miles each way. It took me hours of riding. More new muscles to protest.
Start at the black dot in the harbor and then dingy to shore off on the left end. get on your bike and ride to the right, into another town. My butt is tired! I'm sunburned. But i want to give out a big shout out to Rose and John of Coastal Cruisers for such quick customer service. $26 and a few hours riding is all it took to get me back in the saddle. (i left the boat at 11am and got back at 6p. All that time spent riding) If you are in Destin and need anything related to bikes, or scooters, call Rose!
note: the outboard ran fine. I'm about to eat my fresh Grouper - From Sexton Seafood Market. How could life be better? I bought Grouper cheek meet. It's said that it's sweeter. *Fresh daily key lime PIE for desert! Yes, be jealous.
Good Night Sweet Cheeks.

ps. i almost forgot. When i got back to the dingy one of the kids who work at the Marina was on his cell phone talking. As i walked by he said, "hi" to me. then the other person on the phone must have asked him 'who was that.' Because he said into the phone, "Oh, just some old guy who lives on his boat and uses our dock for tying off his dingy." *This kid looks just like Buzzy did in College. he does not remind me of Buzzy. He looks just like him. i'll try to get a photo if i see him again.
