Melborurne

 In with the new.....
 Out with the old....she was a good genny....she got us through
the last 6.5 years....sometimes running for days at a time to keep us warm!
 There's she is...gotta put the water jugs away!
 Just hangin'!
 Gotta go!
 Working on the bridge
 Another one bites the dust!
 Is this a contemporary house from the 60's!??!
 Entrance into a marina in Melbourne
 
 Lot's of birdies!
 Luckily for Linda her boat is sitting out in the Indian River!
 
See!  I told ya!
 
 HO! HO! HO!
 The other side of the dust!!
 Reflection on a glass window building
 Nice painting on the side of a building wall....
 Historic downtown Melbourne!
 Lots of blue!
 Two manatees !!!!
 Gotta find out what kind of duck this is...beautiful!
 Chillin' literally!
 Got it!  Fish-n-go!
 Using the sports feature on my new camera....
 Works pretty good....
 Yepper!
 It's a keeper! And he got the fish!
My tree is in need of some straightening up I'd say!
 
We had good intentions of leaving today and heading further south, but as a boater things change in a moments notice!  We run our genny in the morning to make coffee and about 5 minutes into the brewing process we hear a loud noise and the genny shut off.  It made it's last pot of coffee for us.  We found it laying on it's side, and the cover was blown off at the bottom. There was nothing we could do for her.  In the past, we have taken her in for maintenance when we had issues, but not this time!!  So the closest place to get one was 18 miles away.  We pulled anchor and moved down to the next bridge and made it a 6 mile ride instead.  Gotta love Uber!!
 
While in town we had lunch at the Ichabod Marina. I ordered a Portobello sandwich, while Bob had a burger.  Let me tell you, mine was a better choice by a long shot! 
 
We walked the historic part of town and there is a bar on every corner!  Melbourne is the place to be if you just want to bar-hop for 3 blocks and feel pretty silly by the time you get through the 3 blocks!
 
We made it back to the boat before the rain started.  Not sure what our plans are for tomorrow, still supposed to have rain and thunderstorms.  Hoping to move on....
