This weekend the kid's friends Ian and Kira (Barrys kids) were here and they spent most of Saturday out in the bay in our little skiff. They went to Brooks Island and Red Rock. (just the four)I was so excited to see them able to go and explore without adult supervision and do it confidently and responsibly. It was funny to hear them go on and on about this and that. It definately has given them the desire to go and see new places.
Once again we have a bit of a plan change. Neil was called to do a re wire job and a few other electronic installs for a neighboring boat here in the marina. Neil does great work and the owners seem like a very nice bunch.
Stewart is Neil's right hand man on the project, and has a lot of knowledge to offer as well. I sure am proud of those two boys.
Katie has been a tremendous help with all the sewing. She helps keep me sane when I am attempting to make things that I have never done before. She is also becoming a darn good cook!
Daisy spent today on the bow of the Islander, that Neil was working on, sunbaking and making sure no one came aboard without her approval. She has done this since we started doing boatworks. She seemed quite content to be back in the game and being the best Mascott she could be. Seems like old times with our company, "Ship Shape Boatworks", all a go.
Although it is starting to feel like we may never leave,(haha) this last minute work is truly a blessing and I am not complaining a bit.
We do wish we were under way already, but hey, being here on F Dock with great people is not a bad way to end the winter.
