Waiting for Our Propane Tank
We had to drive out to the country to get our propane tank filled - a convenient bench was located here!Yes, we have been in Chatham for quite some time and you have heard about our day trips out to explore the area, but we have done other things as well. We mention that we have been working on boat projects but what were they? It may look by the photos that only Bob has been working, but Janice has been busy too (really). You will notice that Bob has become quite attached to his new blue overalls that he got at the boat jumble!
We have also enjoyed socializing with friends, both “old ones – not implying age of course!” and new ones. Fortunately for us our friends, Peter and Bridget who we had met while in Trinidad lived close enough to us that they were able to drive up to join us for a very non-typical Easter dinner of enchiladas! It was great to catch up with them as well as introduce them to our other friends, Sandi and Colin that we first met while in London. We had a great time with our new friends, Toni and Martin (with their cat Louie) being treated to quite a feast every time we were on their boat. They introduced
us to Peter and Janet who have now become friends of ours as well. What a wonderful community this is to be a part of.
We still enjoy viewing the beautiful sunrises and sunsets even when we are safely at a dock in a marina. We did some more provisioning filling the “holes” on the boat with food stuff as well as a few items from the local chandlery. We went with Sandi and Colin to check out what was called the English Heritage Day which was a family event complete with historic military encampments, rides for the kids, food stalls and an area with various animals such as rabbits, sheep, chickens and even a turtle!
We found Chatham to be an excellent place to get things done as well as a base to explore this part of the UK. The people that are “regulars” here at the marina were friendly and we made some very good friends here. We will let the photos tell some of the story of what filled in the rest of our time in Chatham.
