Yesterday, I forgot to blog, but I had a good Dinner yesterday. Aunt Pennie made some steaks and they were really good! She also made rolls and those were really yummy with butter on them also. It was my last night in Maine this year Yesterday. Today, I got up, and I made a sandwich, packed a banana, and some potato chips I bought about 4 days ago. It was my last day, so we were going to try to catch a lot. I was suppose to be in by 2 PM, so I had a sandwich for lunch.
I got my clothes on, and we went down to the wharf, and we went out straight from the mooring. There was barely any clouds in the sky today. I had to put on sunscreen once the sun came out. We were doing good for only single traps, we were getting consistent good lobsters. That was until a beeping started to go off. Uncle Art said it was the alarm if the Bilge was to full of water. The Bilge pumps were not working. We had to go in to the Wharf to try to fix them. Terri found out that it was because they were both connected to one battery in the front of the boat, and it was out of juice, so we connected it to the other one and charged the one that was empty.
That took about 1 hour to do, so we had an hour cut out of our day, then we went out to haul some more. We finished out the bait, then we had about 20 more traps, so we had to go in to the Wharf to get 1 more tray of Herring. We finished those traps, and we were done at about 1:30 PM. My Mom, Levi, Oma and Aunt Pennie were waiting at the Wharf for me when I was done. They wanted to go out and get icecream for me for my last day, I said I just wanted to go home to shower. They dropped me of at Aunt Pennies house, and they went to go get Ice Cream.
When they got home, I was showered, Packed, and ready to go. I put my Luggage and my backpack in the car, and we left soon after. We went to Portland, and we were staying in a Quality Inn. Tomorrow we are getting up to catch our flight at 7:30 AM.
