A Beautiful Day

For some sailing! Once I take care of some business matters, Bob and I are going to take the boat out. It’s a perfect day! The sun is brilliant and the temp is going to be just right! The sea is calling my name.

Staying Afloat

Bob and I decided to stay on the boat for a couple of days. It’s so cozy and the ocean has a way of rocking you to sleep. We are in port to gather a few items so that we don’t starve. Ha, ha, ha. I think we need to look at sailing ourselves to places nearby. I love driving the boat and the privacy we find out in the middle of the sea with no one around. It’s almost as if we are on a second honeymoon.

Lesson Update

Charting is so complicated. Bob, however, has a natural ability for it! I now know how to use a compass correctly! Today’s the last lesson and then we have the option to continue to more advanced lessons. I am not sure if we will or not.

First Lesson

The first lesson went well. I feel I was way over prepared. Mostly we walked the deck and were shown the basics of our vessel. It was more of a get to know you and your surroundings. Today we actually get to take the boat out and start the hands on process.

Monday

Monday is the day we start our classes. I have my dear little head so crammed with information that I fear I won’t learn a thing! We are thinking of opening yet another location. Only this time it may be a joint venture with a lovely couple we have known for years. I should be able to spill the beans on Thursday.
