Treasure Island, FL

(Saturday Nov 24 - Dist: 18.5 mi; Temp: 78 F; TTT: 2:20 hrs)


Time for a mini vacation and the Treasure Island Tennis and Yacht Club is the perfect place.  The Olympic size swimming pool was heated to 84 degrees and had lounges and chairs that were super comfy, first class all the way.  The Tiki bar at the pool was open daily til 9 PM and served food from the restaurant which in itself was first class.  It too was open daily for lunch and dinner.


Besides enjoying our surroundings we had a great time with our friends from Windsor who have a condo nearby.  Jim and I got out golfing 4 times and Linda and Sandi went shopping.  How they could do it 5 days straight is beyond me but Linda was happy.  The only down side was trying to get my engines services from Cummins.  In the end they were serviced but we discovered a leaking seawater pump on the starboard engine.  That repair required a second visit and an additional $2,000.  Damn.

In short we stayed 11 wonderful days before heading off.
