Just The Cook

Twee tweeeeeee tweeeeeeee. Now make all preparations for getting underway. It will be nice if it comes back, and I hope so. JUST THE COOK is our most picturesque place to eat in St. Andrews, but just now we watched as it was towed past our porch, listing heavily to starboard and appearing in extremis, the small boat that was towing it pausing frequently seeming uncertain and only shakily in control. 

That was about six o’clock, and at eight o’clock as darkness set it, the two, towboat and JUST THE COOK, were still in sight far off beyond Redfish Point, headed east into the night, not a light showing. 

Thinking maybe THE COOK had replace his floating galley with newer, we walked down Bayview Avenue to see, but nope, 

empty berth, just his runabout, and looked like some kitchen equipment left sitting on the pier. And the free beer cooler. 

Galley not ready for sea, Sir.
