The Sailboat Prep Continues
Its been raining like crazy down here. I don’t think it has stopped for weeks so we made the best of our Sunday. While we were at Ross and Marshall’s shopping for our cruise next week we happened to stroll by a huge bin of outdoor pillows. They were really cheap too! So naturally we […]

Launching Our Sailboat For The 1st Time
Here is our almost beautiful 1983 Catalina 22 sailboat. We didn’t want to waste a perfectly good Sunday so we picked up the boat from Matt’s and left the mast there. We decided to put her in for a few hours just to putt around the intracoastal. The funny looks from people who knew it […]
