Back to Basics in Ft. Pierce

It worked out that I was able to go back to my old career in teaching Handicapped Pre K chidren.  I have a wonderful job at Lawnwood Elementary which is very like my last position in Panama City.  Because of my age I was able to go back to work without financial diminishations.  Gary was not so lucy, so he is full time maintenance captain and occasional galley slave. 
We did have quite a bit of damage during Hurricane Irma, but not catestrophic.  Sails, equipment, dingy chaps, canvas, and of course all the waxing and brighwork having to be redone.  We had generator problems and of course the general maintenance tht hs to be done. 
We have gotten to spend some time with our Marathon boating buddies, and am looking forward to seeing more of them as they travel through Ft. Pierce on their way to winter quarters in Marathon.  We will miss our White Marlin family and the beautiful weather this year.
