We arrived at Thunderbolt with gray skies.  We expected rain all day Wednesday, April 29th.  And it was.  A perfect day to cover up with our warm blankets, read a book and take a nap.

Thunderbolt is known for delivering

Delivered to the boat!

To your boat every morning!!  For the last 40 years!!!   I was expecting a box of 4.  I was surprised with a box of 6 donuts!!

3 for me. 3 for thee.

The simple joys in life are made with sugar!!

In between the grey skies and wetness, we were able to walk down the street and eat at the local bar & grill.  We read they had great hamburgers as well as the normal fair of seafood. This little guy looks like he is getting ready for the season at a local fishing dock.

Of course, next door to Thunderbolt Marina is “The Thunderbolt Marine”.

Look at the boats they haul out and work on!!

We were awestruck at the size of these guys.  We watched the red bottom one get moved to a side slip for another large boat to takes it place.  This is the place to get “hauled out” for sure!!  They can handle most anything, it appears.

Nothing else but rain drops and watching boats get moved around like they are play toys.  Fascinating.
