We spent yesterday doing chores: including laundry, shopping, dumping trash, and defrosting the fridge. Today we gave each other a haircut and then dinghied to Haulover Grill for a late lunch with friends. As is often the case, the menu was limited but the food was good. The company was even better. One of the owners of Haulover Grill, Ishmael, gave us some background on the name of the restaurant. It sits on Haulover Bay which is a very shallow bay that local fishermen could use to beach their boats on the sandbars and “haul over” to clean the bottoms. He also joked that if you go aground you have to haul your boat over to get to shore. Although we arrived at mid-tide George did have to walk the dinghy a short distance to get it to their dock. The setting is gorgeous and there was even a hummingbird flitting around us. 
A beautiful setting for a good meal with friends.

See if you can spot the hummingbird in the center of the picture.
We are now hunkered down awaiting a cold front that is forecast to arrive tomorrow and bring west winds in the mid-twenties with gusts close to 40 knots.
