Aug. 27th - SYC Henry Island

I got up at 7am & it was 61'.  Later today we are going over to Roche Harbor to do a variety of things.  One of them is to go look at a Sonship that one of our friends has there to see what they look like.  The Captain thinks he needs a different boat & he's interested in a 58' which is what our friend Bob has.  They are much easier to get on & off of, so we'll see what the Admiral (me) thinks!  

We went to Roche & did see the Sonship that our friend, Bob Brunkow, owns.  We both really liked it but each boat is different (& his is not for sale), so we'll see what ones that are for sale look like.  Rod also has not totally given up on a Fleming so who knows.  Then we went to lunch at the restaurant & Bob came with us.  

We also looked for birthday presents for the girls - I found 2 things for Sienna.  But Talia has a very hard time making decisions about gifts for her, so nothing so far.  We got back around 3pm & the wind had really picked up.  I got totally wet from the spray.  Had to dry out my pants, jacket & life jacket in the sun.

We had flank steak, Quinoa & salad for dinner.  Rod barbecued the steak on the boat & we ate inside the salon.  We (not Rod) also went up & did s'mores & then Heather & the girls stayed after I went back to the boat.
