Jan 19, Sunday Church and walking

We got up normal time, did our devotions, then went to church. The church is starting a 3 day fast and prayer tomorrow morning. We are not joining them this time. Perhaps in the future we will try this.

After church we walked to the bank, and got out some cash. I tried to do that last night at two different ATMs, but was only successful in getting a really long walk in. We only use ATMs at banks, and we have found three banks within walking distance. They of course are not close together. We also did some shopping and finally got back to the boat about 3:30.

We took naps, and then I worked on our BBQ. This has not worked basically since shortly after we got it. we bought it and then took our trip north from San Diego, the regulator was stored in the propane locker on deck. Which would not be a bad thing except that when we went north with the heavy seas, we had lots of water on deck and some of it got into the propane locker. the regulator is aluminum and the orifice is brass. It took a lot of cleaning to finally clean out the orifice (part of the time was figuring out what the real issue was). Once I identified what I needed to clean I was able to get it to work. Of course the sparker still does not work, it was on the BBQ and the BBQ was on the rail. With the salt spray and water, it doesn’t spark anymore. I have tried replacing the battery, but still no joy.
