Ray, my neighbor from Marathon now at anchor Marsh Harbor.
Wayne and Linda, new friends.
When we were coming back to the dock to dinghy home on the boats I met a fellow cruiser carrying a bag of trash and an aluminum 10 gallon LP gas tank. He threw away the bag of trash in the dumpster then set the tank down beside it. I asked him if he was throwing it away? (read: crazy) He said yes that it was past its inspection date and he had already bought new ones...
10 gallon aluminum tank - retail $140.
Well as fate would have it, MY ten gallon LP tank ran out when Cousin Rick was on the boat using the grill. I had it on my short to-do list to get my tank refilled. So here is this Christmas Miracle bottle. I grabbed it up and rode my bike to the LP gas place and had it refilled for $12.
Now when you come visit i can cook stuff on the grill. I'll be using a new aluminum 10 gallon tank!
