The St. Petersburg Boat Show is this weekend and we traveled
by car with Al and Charli to the show. Lots of really interesting boating
items: compact 12 volt AGM batteries to replace our flooded 8D batteries, an
electric motor/generator that could be used to power the boat in case of
emergency, new generation of solar panels, information on how to clean our
canvas, propane powered dingy motors and on and on.

We had lunch at The Kitchen an outdoor restaurant on the
street with good food, friendly service and rock music. Then for a walk around
town to the Vinoy Hotel, the marina, a great park with a fine climbing tree. We
did a short visit to the Chihuly Glass store where I picked out my Christmas
Present for $6600 very pretty.

| Great climbing tree for about 30 kids |
Lastly a bit of grocery shopping and Charli cooked shrimp
and asparagus risotto, very tasty. All in all a fine day in St. Petersburg.
