 We are heading to Atlantic Canada by car instead of boat.
Capt. Bob has yet another medical issue, atrial flutter, which we will
talk about later. We left on 2 August from Jule III's homeport in Deale
Bay at 0900 and headed for Plymouth MA. We (Bob, Ann, and Mattie Kay)
had a tough traffic day through all of Connecticut. Still, it only took
10 hours to drive.

 Our mission on Saturday was to reacquaint
ourselves with Onset and some of the friendly folks there. Our first
stop was Point Independence Yacht Club (PIYC) where we spent many days
on previous cruises). There we found Barry and Glenn, the dock master,
and former assistant dock master. They were so helpful and supportive
during Ann's leg operation when we were there on Jule.

 We visited many places in Onset, but it is now time to
get ready for the next leg to New Brunswick. But wait! Bob's atrial
flutter flared up with very high blood pressure. We agreed that this
was a show stopper as the flare up could mean some bad things. So we
canceled our ferry trips, motels, and airB&B's. The next day we
started the return trip. Sad!

 Arrived in Shipwright Harbor last week.
Heading to ILM to meet up with
doctors. Let you know how it goes... Bob had his brain MRI-ed to confirm that had fully healed from an old hemorrage, took blood thinners to minimize clots, had a ablation procedure on his heart, and certified good as new. Ann had an MRI on her back to find the source(s) of pain. She had a series of ablations to minimize the pain. They worked mostly but still some problems. Still working the issue.
