Flea Market Finds

Since I pelted my head 3 weeks ago, I wasn't able to travel to the Dania Beach Flea Market.  We had been planning on go to it for about a year - lots to buy to outfit the boat.  I was really disappointed I couldn't go but I still was not able to travel...so Daniel attended without me and did wonderfully.  How many girls can say they got a new washer/dryer combo for their boat?  I certainly can.  I was so excited about the washer I almost forgot to ask about the other treasures Daniel found.  He got us a new transom ide the boat, some new fenders and a fender holder. 



So, after traveling almost non-stop for 2 days, Daniel arrived home with our treasures.  He got a few hours sleep and we left this morning for the boat to install some of these things.  He spent the morning building the frame for the solar panel and then with the help of a fellow boater and a marina staffer, he installed the solar panel.







Most people would call it a day here, but not my captain.  Poor fella!  He now had to install the new washer/dryer combo.  He spent a while designing and building the area the washer was going into and then again, with the help of some more fellow boaters (different ones this time - you don't want to wear them all out) he installed our new washer/dryer combo!  It just fit through the doorways.  It was so close - what a day!
