The place is called the Bait House, a restaurant, bar and tackle shop.  i looked them up on facebook and they finally closed down on March 18th.  I hope they&#8217;re doing ok.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LDIicuK_hws?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In the background of the video you can hear a guy going &#8220;whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa,&#8221; and I think was bouncing a kid up and down.  over and over.  incredibly annoying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>it felt like we waited quite a while for the ferry but it finally arrived and quickly took us back to Dunedin.  A mighty chilly ride and it made me think of Toun, who has been so cold many times on our boat.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When we docked I was desperately hungry and we found this fantastic restaurant just around the block from where our car was parked, across from the Dunedin Pier.  It&#8217;s called <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Sea Sea Riders (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/seasearidersdunedin.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Sea Sea Riders<\/a> and it was soooo delicious.  It helped that i was so very hungry.  I wolfed down a fantastic chowder and then got this big healthy salad with fish on top.  I looked them up on Facebook and they finally Covid-closed on March 25th which seems much too late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f153.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18529\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f153.jpg 400w, https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f153-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I took this picture so i could remember the place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f154.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18530\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f154.jpg 540w, https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f154-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This lovely fountain was in between the restaurant, which you can see there in the back, and our parking spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f155.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18531\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f155.jpg 540w, https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f155-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>After we got back to our place I had a large glass of wine with the last piece of the yummy cake from Barb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f156.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18532\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f156.jpg 540w, https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f156-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m getting close to the end of the posts from Florida; we spent one more full day there, and then had many hours to kill before getting on our plane home on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ok then, keep washing your hands, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>G.H.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Life here in Springfield right now : warmer. still coughing. daffodils starting to come up, yay for that.
