August 03-31, 2004 - Aruba

August 3-31, 2004 - Aruba We spent the rest of the month of August doing pretty much the same things that we did before our side trip to Venezuela. We worked on the boat, went grocery shopping and spent time with friends. Also, we spent time watching the weather since this hurricane season was getting more active. We had a few near misses that caused the wind to drop to nothing, and we had a few mild wind reversals from the storms. We were well prepared this time. We put out our second anchor so that we would not swing into the shallows and go aground again. All in all, despite the storms it was still a quiet and relaxing month
