Small World

Everglades City is a long way from nowhere.
We're staying at the rod and Gun Club.

We rode our bikes through town, and found a hardware store that resembles a smaller version of "Paul's" in Somerset, KY.
I need some glue to repair the dinghy, a plumbing fitting for the boat's leaky water heater, some acetone, and some toothpaste. Ok, they didn't have the toothpaste, but they did know where the small grocery store was.
There's an Everglades museum, and lots of little restaurants. We were looking for a place to return later for dinner, when we ran into Bill Harrington from the Eagle Creek Sailing Club.

Bill came back to our boat and we chatted for a while.
Long way from nowhere indeed........................
