12/23/15 Stuart Florida

    After a good sleep we arose took Skipper and my bicycle  to the park where Francie  and Skipper spent some quality time, while I pedaled down to West Marine to pick up the repair kit for our galley sink. Along the way I spotted a bike shop and went in looking for the "perfect seat" for my bike.  I asked for a Harley Davidson seat and the clerk showed me their variety of seats.  I asked to try the one that looked best to me and they set it up for me.  It was expensive but comfortable , so I figured it would make a good Christmas present.  What a joy to ride, can't wait to show Francie.  Afterwards I met her a Pubix Market and we both brought back a bunch of groceries .  I had stopped for a taco, which we shared as it was way more than I could handle.   HA HA.  We put things away and then I rebuilt the galley pump.  As i was going to install it I noticed a spring still on the table.  No way am I going to take it apart again tonight.  12/23/15  Take pump apart and put spring in and reassemble..drop screw and while picking that up notice o ring on floor. looks like one I put in pump.  Take pump apart and yes O ring goes in and reassemble.  Install pump and have very happy wife as it doesn't leak all over.  Very happy Ken also. Skipper and I went to the park for his constitutional and maybe a ride on the bike with awesome seat .  Bike, lock, chain, basket and brand new awesome for seat are gone.  Report missing bike with awesome seat to Stuart Police and they will keep their eyes looking for it, but do not expect to see it again.  I catch the marina bus to down town and find a nice camera to replace our old one.  and make it back in time for the Marina Christmas Eve event.  It started at 1200 and lasted till 1800.  Spiked eggnog and Champagne with an assortment of appetizers.. A grand time was had by all  I arose with a little larger head than normal on Christmas.
