I'm living large at the Relax Inn...
While Prodigal is hauled and on land, it's not legal to stay on the boat while its in the yard. So I got a room at the cheapest place i could imagine myself staying. (there are other spots but they look too scary even for me.) This empty parking lot made me think of a recent Jack Reacher novel, where a Canadian couple were held kidnapped in their room by the crazy hotel guy. So far it's just me who is crazy!

What your bathroom door looks like for $45 per night. You cant 'see' it, but a little known fact: they dont have any heaters at the Relax Inn. Normally it's never cold here, but with the cold front passing through, it got down into the 40's last night. Truly a Relaxing Inn!

Today John, from Whitaker Marine, is sanding the bottom to prep for paint. John says he's working tomorrow and expects to be finished in less than a week. I'll tell you how much it all costs when i find out. For now I'm out $1,250 for 5 gallons of bottom paint. It's gonna add up quickly.
