Well, what a great meal we had  at the Ballard's, we gave thanks for family, friends a good trip and finally sunshine.  Thanksgiving night  we stopped for a drink with Bill and Theresa and got to see Matt and meet his bride Michele.
Friday was one of the three days of  the show of shows at International Speedway.  'The Turkey Rod Run"  5,000 cars for Dave and Jim to experience.  Suerae and I did the thrift stores.  Some luck and ideas at a consignment shop for things to make.
Friday evening Dave and I enjoyed Thanksgiving left overs and reminiscing with  Bill and Theresa.
Breakfast with Suerae and Jim, a walk through a small (real) flea market and then they were off to Orlando.  We relaxed on the boat. I finished my book, Mudbound. Dave used the dinghy and the spark plug wire came out of the magnito on the outboard.  Something he will have to fix back in NMB.  He did find the boat rows well.  Other boaters on the dock invited us for cocktails.  They are a group who trailer their boats to different marinas.  Not sure why???
I think Saturday night was the coldest night we have had so far.  Another boater told us it was 44 degrees.  I got up and put my shoes on; we did run the heater at intervals during the night, a first for the trip.
Sunday morning we rode our bikes and explored shop windows on Beech Street, all the motorcycle shops, and the parks along the river and I did some shelling  with projects in mind.
In the afternoon we experienced the HUGE permanent flea market.  They had junk, produce and some unusual products.  I don't think we saw half of it.  We stopped at Walmart and bought an indoor/outdoor thermometer.  It will give us some data.
Only one breakfast and one lunch out since we got here so today, Monday, we had to do some grocery shopping.  Dave is helping a fellow boater at the dock and I am at the library.
The story of the library is:  We had to pay for internet connection, first time on the trip.  We signed up for a week.  To this point it hasn't worked for three of those days.
Dave has worked out a financial deal with the marina here, good security, to leave the boat until we come back in January.  This will eliminate the confusion of how to get the car back to Daytona from parts South for the Ballards.
A few pictures to post and then I am going shelling along the river bank again.
