prelude to a party


Good morning all
It's a beautiful Sat. morning on the river. Our second none storm blew thru the other day, It was a two day drizzle no wind. Not that I'm complaining. We had a crane job set up for early in the morning when this storm was supposed to blow in and I told the guys they had better bring rain gear. No need, the rain didn't arrive until late in the evening and was light but constant.

Our next big party is coming up soon. Koi and Tinkerbell will be departing in about three weeks. The party is slated for the 16th/ Oct. Again we are doing a pig in the box and a keg. Same rules apply, come one come all, bring a dish and what ever you drink other then beer. And ICE, everyone must bring ICE.
I expect the guys over this afternoon. We try to hangout every Sat. and watch the Bikini's go up and down the river. It's always best in the early evening when the boats are on the way back in after a long day of partying out on the sandbar's. They are drunk and dancing. And those Latina's know how to move it and love to show it off. I put on a pot of pork and sauerkraut last night. It slow cooked all night. This morning I deboned it and switched to warm. It's always a big hit with the crowd. I'll be lucky if I get one meal left over when they are thru.
There has been some activity down river between the Flagler and S.W. 1st street bridges. It's the site of the old east coast fisheries building. The site fell into disrepair over the years and was finally torn down earlier this year. Used to be a great restaurant. It looks like a foundation Co. has started pounding in Sheet piling along the river. Maybe a new restaurant? Time will tell.
That's about all I have for now. Hope to see you all at the going away party.
Life is good
Capt. Bob
