Tires!


Got nine tires from a Northbound yacht that came through this morning...

I have never been able to reconcile myself with the contrasts created by how wealth is distributed in the world. Shelter Bay Marina triggers science fiction type movie scenes in my mind where one is taken deep into the bowels of the earth to witness sub human creatures who have never seen the sun slave away mining some precious mineral. "What is the end result of all this labor?" "Where does all the money go?" Well, one of the possible answers could be D dock here at the marina. They stuck me out at the end so every time I go take a shower or use the toilet, I do a mental calculation of what the total value of all the boats are that I pass. It is a lot of millions...

Awesome! Wish I could be there for the transit through the canal. Best of luck and happy New Year! - Joyce
