Andrew has already taken 1000 pictures. I think he should publish a photo book of sunsets and sunrises called 'Today and Tomorrow'.

Ballard Oil Co Ft Myers Beach the cheapest diesel on this part of the coast. The owner, Jim was very friendly. He told me that his 2nd wife is very thrifty. He begs her to buy shoes.
She's worn the same shoes for 12 years. His first wife spent all his money buying shoes every 12 minutes.

The bulk of Jim's business is fueling shrimp boats. At one time the building was an ice house. The ice was made on top of the building and shot down five inch pipes into the refrigeration areas of the shrimp boats. Then came modern refrigeration and business hasn't been the same.

I may have posted these pictures before.

Dreaming Cat

After watching the sunset I curl up on Sallyann's side of the bed and sleep.

Sometimes I dream of humans chasing me around a ship,

or Sallyann taking me for a walk in the sunshine.

Other nights I worry about falling overboard and climbing up the pylons over very sharp barnacles.

It's hard to fall asleep when your view from the porthole

looks like this:

and when annoying dolphins play around the edge of the boat.

I like the dream where I'm the only cat on an island inhabited by one legged pelicans.

and the one where I'm in the tower at Treasure Island.

Don't tell the Captain that occasionally I dream on being on other tug boats,

and aboard pirate ships.

My most unforgettable nightmare is me sailing on a beautiful day on the Gulf of Mexico. The dream starts our all warm and cozy then I see Reflection dead ahead.
