A sunny, hot day.
I made an early start, drank only one cup of coffee and finished painting GANNET’s deck by 9:30. I did not take before and after photos, but the little boat is transformed since my arrival.
I am moving through another transition: from boat work, though some is still to be done, to provisioning.
Today, after painting, I Ubered to the chandlery and then a shopping center. When I leave there I take a taxi because they are right outside.
I asked my driver how long he had been waiting for a fare. He said since 7:00 a.m. He picked me up at 1:45 p.m. The fare from the shopping center to the marina is about $5.00 US and I don’t know that he received it all. He might not have owned the taxi, and if he did he had to pay for fuel and maintenance.
Sitting for half a day to make maybe five dollars.
He praised me to his God when I gave him a dollar tip.
