April 16-18

What a fantastic weekend!

We began our weekend by heading over to the marina Friday evening after work. Jody launched his boat after work as well and joined us over at the marina where we all stayed the night.

Saturday morning we were up early to get things together for heading out. After coffee and dock chat with neighbors, we headed out about 8:30am.

Blake was on the radio with Jody.

Cocktail hour begins at any time on a boat. We received a gift this past week from extended family. They sent us some great cups that have the name of our boat, port, and our names on them. Perfect size for that rum and coke.

Jody took this picture of us with his cell phone and picture mailed it to us.

At Ft. McRee anchorage.

Ben and Jody hopped in the water to scrub the bottom and replace the shaft zinc.

Later that day Carol rowed Blake and Pogo to the shore.

Brice, Ashley, and Jason cruised over Saturday on Jason’s boat to hang out for a bit.

Brian Hart sailed over from Alabama, so we had the opportunity to chat with him for a bit.

Saturday evening we ate well; steak and salad with cocktails.

After such a busy day, Pogo was pooped out.

Sunday we awoke to a beautiful sunrise.

Good morning.

Carol decided to take Pogo to shore, but didn’t realize how strong the current was moving as tide was coming in.

So Jody had to go rescue her.

He then demonstrated the art of rowing and took them over to the shore.

Later in the morning, Ben, Blake, and Pogo went ashore to explore.

Heading back to Monomoy.

Later Sunday morning, Jody’s wife and daughter joined us (Jody picked them up on his boat), so we took a cruise on their boat for a bit.

Blake was pooped out by early morning.

Arriving back to Monomoy.

We set sail about 1pm to head back home. We passed many other sailboat out and about.

Cocktails again!

We had our own personal flyover.

Blake and Pogo watched a movie.

It truly was a great weekend and was enjoyed by us all.

Can’t wait until the next beautiful weekend to do it all over again.
