Yesterday I got so involved with telling you about our trip to Little Exuma that I failed to mention that we traveled through the line of the Tropic of Cancer. I had to go on the internet to refresh my memory as to exactly what the Tropic of Cancer represented but I got the details. For those of you who need a refresh like me, it's an imaginary line at Latitude 23 26.22 and represents where the tropic begins in the northern hemisphere. The Tropic of Capricorn is where the tropic begins for the southern hemisphere and the equator is in the middle. I had our hand held GPS with us so I could locate the Tropic of Cancer when we crossed it and this picture is where it begins. Not much there! You would think that someone would set up a stand or restaurant or something on the line so people could stop and have their pictures taken.
Today we worked on the boat. We did such exciting things as defrost our refrigerators freezers, laundry and other miscellaneous duties.

Another front is moving through tonight. From what we are hearing we will probably be here until Saturday before we begin our journey back to Nassau. My brother John, Teresa, his wife, Rachel, their daughter, Daniel, their son and Brit, their daughter-in-law will be joining us on March 7th. We will be making a couple of stops along the way but plan to get to Nassau a couple of days prior to their arrival to provision the boat.
