Fifth Grandchild arrives

Friday afternoon we received emails telling us that our daughters' baby was on the way. She wasn't due until May 14th. Abby arrived just after midnight our time. Our son Joe kept us updated and just before noon while fueling we got the email (5 lbs. 1 oz. 17 ½ ") both doing well).

We eliminated a stop at Cendeleros Bay to get to the new expensive government marina south of Loreto so we could call Kim. The marina has four new, sharp, modern looking phone booths. The booths look good even without telephones.

After a little fuel and lots of water Vagari, with a very happy crew, anchored six kt. mi. north east of the marina in a cove off Isla Carman. Last year we took lots of clams out of this cove. This year the water was a little cool and we are anxious to get into town after two week "on the hook".

With a little luck I will post lots of pictures from Loreto tomorrow.

Posted via radio Saturday evening I hope.
