As we watch the weather we have decided to push our departure to Sunday afternoon as the low front in the gulf stream is moving slower than we initially had anticipated.

This afternoon we are picking up our foldable bicycles (which we had serviced), filling our prescriptions (an entire years worth!), and filling up our propane tanks at Agway (so we can have enough to cook our way to Bermuda).

Tomorrow we are doing a final stop at Clements (our new favorite grocery store) and then are off to sell our car back to the dealership.

As we have been preparing and getting ready to take off the past few days in the boat yard we realized how much we are going to miss everyone from NEB! We are going to miss Bob Sharkeys reports on how fast he runs, Young Bobs reports on his engagement, Tony's morning wake up visits (when he isn't dropping our pumpkins in the water),  Sue from the office, the visits from Buzz and Phip, our visits to Andrew, Bill and Nathan at the Ship Store, and Matt, Scott, Jackie, and everyone else from the Melville Grille.  After some careful consideration of all the great things NEB has to offer (people, services, etc.) we have decided that we will miss the spinach and artichoke dip most of all.
