Happy Bastille Day!

Sorry this has been so long. For some reason the connection at the dock has been less than good. (Read stinky!) So we are now sitting at Starbuck's enjoying a White Chocolate Mocha. It is raining here so a day is being well spent.

We have had some incredible sailing last week and over the weekend. Although one day was incredibly nice and the wind was blowing just right so I took down the Bimini (cover over the cockpit). BIG mistake! Splash was in his little life preserver and he got hot. Took him out of the heat and he decided to get sick. By the time we realized it, it was toooo late! H went down to help the little guy and let's just say that she returned a different color then when she left. (Green is NOT her color).

But we put the bimini back up and we have all recovered.

We have also had several powerful evening and morning storms. High winds, torrential rains and lightning/thunder. Amazing.

Today is overcast and it is raining off and on. Hence the trip to Starbucks.

Last Saturday night we did have some entertainment on the point. (at the marina). Very enjoyable. One of the people here is a singer and accompanist and he sings 60's-80s song. Just our type of "pop" music. He started prior to 7p and ended at about 10p. Had a great time visiting with other slip holders and enjoying the cool bay breeze and listening to really good music.

Getting a lot of our chores done on the boat. Those things that needed to be done and we never had time for. So we have been busy and just enjoying ourselves. I am going to post pictures so hope that you enjoy!

Love to all...
H and KK
