Well our first overnight trip on the boat did not end very well so we packed (and when I say packed up I mean that very loosely this past Friday night and headed out to try it again. My work week was very hectic as I had more kids than I intended to my first week of summer break and Jeff ended up worked until almost 2:30 but he came home gathered the stuff and headed to the boat and I was going to meet him when my last daycare kid left for the day.
It was a beautiful evening and we motored our way to our intended locations. It was pretty breezy and the wind gust were reported up to 30MPH so we just played it safe and motored.
Peppers first boat ride and probably last. He did not seem to enjoy himself and he is rather old so we decided it may be best not to bring him next time.
We realized we had a next in the boom and there were several little babies in the nest. The bad news was mama bird left the nest before we left. It was my suggestion to turn back and stay local to the marina for the night but Jeff wanted to pursue with our plan.....I hold the baby birds death his sole responsibility I DO NOT HAVE THEIR BLOOD ON MY CONSCIOUS
Skipper prefers to sit on his humans lap while sailing
So cute
Pulling into the creek for the night
Pepper made himself comfortable for the night at the first oppurtunity
Someone has got to clean this cabin up....oh yeah that would probably have to be me :(
Banana was dying to play apples to apples even being so proactive as to pull out the card with the bad word on it and throw it out. We were so tired though we just went to bed.
Around 3:30 Skipper threw up about 3 times. We decided either he does not have sea legs or it was the 1/2 a sub he got into at dinner time
Morning came and we survived. It was a beautiful morning
