The boat was in the water, but we were still waiting on two parts. One for the starboard engine and one for the generator. We had taken Peanut to the vet two weeks ago because she had a UTI. The vet was great, treated the UTI and an infection in her feet from chewing on them. We changed her diet as recommended and took her back for a checkup. We had him look at what we thought was a fatty tumor. It was not. It was a mast cell tumor which is cancerous and needed to be taken off ASAP. In the meantime I visited an art festival in Urbanna on Saturday, June 2nd. While enjoying the art I stepped in a hole and rolled my right ankle. The pain wasn't bad at first so slowly walked to the truck, made 2 more stops and headed to the boat. By the time I reached the boat I was limping and my ankle had swollen to three times it size but the pain was still minimal.
We iced my ankle and decided I better have an x-ray. Unbelievable!!! Hairline fracture. The good news a boot verses a cast and 5 weeks rather than 6-8. No weight bearing for the first two weeks so hopefully I wont fall using the crutches and brake something else! The bad news, our plan to do the Down East Loop was now on hold.
