Emerald Star

While in Santa Cruz we saw some friends, neighbors & relatives. Ralph loaned us his truck so we could take care of some mundane things like dentist and doctor appointments and trips to several stores. We dropped off some stuff at the house that we didn't need on the boat and met the current tenants. In the harbor we were rafted to another boat that was also heading south. Since we climbed across their boat many times a day we got to know them and had a potluck dinner together one night. It was nice to be in a familiar place.

No new photos of Santa Cruz. Since we were essentially in our neighborhood we didn't think of taking any pictures. This photo is from the beach that's three blocks from the house.
