Velcro Beach

Vero Beach from our Mooring Ball
Vero Beach is a spot where people get stuck, in a good way. There is free bus transportation and a City run mooring field that only charges $11 per night. Moorings are shared with up to two other boats and this is a fun way to meet other boaters. There are close to 300 boats moored here this week. We’ve met lots of nice folks and finally caught up with Dave & Jill on Nonstop. Check www.nonstopadventures.com for a real sailors blog. We shared a mooring ball with Bill & Sharon on Silver Lining. Scuppers, their cat, came over and visited most days.  Also met Pete & Monica, friends of friends from Rochester days that live in the marina.

Nonstop
Contented Turtle came in the day after us and David & Noah played most days after school this week. They invited us to join in their Chanukah celebration Friday night. Beth made amsterdam apple pancakes and the crew of Turtle hosted with latkes and matzo ball soup. Everything was delicious and it was an unexpected pleasure to share the holiday with another crew!


We went into town a few days and stocked up on essentials like a spear tip for the lobster spear. We’re optimistic about being able to catch some of our dinners this winter.
