FLOATING TONIGHT


We were the very first boat to go into the water on Monday. There was a huge shrimper coming out of the water before us. It was a day with a tight schedule for the “travel lift” to put boats in and boats out because of the storm Sandy wrecked havoc on the schedule. We went in the water as per usual, all went well and Paul was raving about the engines! He had work done on the them and also the port prop was put on the starboard side and visa versa on purpose... much better steering. All this has paid off.

Two weeks ago we stayed in a motel because it was so hot to stay on the boat on the hard with a small air conditioner going. Now, this past couple of days it was so cold we had to put extra blanket on us! We are now plugged in with the “big yellow cord” and have heat throughout the boat. Weather changes rapidly here.

While in Daytona, there was a great pumpkin display in the lobby. I took a few pictures and thought I would share them. Our son is going to answer the door to the tricker treaters.... I told him what to buy as our house in Ottawa has a reputation of handing out full-size chocolate bars, not those one-biters!


This pumpkin drank too much?? Or ate too much, he is sick!

This girl pumpkin has a clay face mask on,
getting a pedicure and cukes for eyes!
Plus see the soothing river rock and candle.

This pumpkin loves to read something funny!

Boo to all, and eat some chocolate!

love the funny, reading pumpkin! Fort Lauderdale was fun. We had a good time at the boat show, and fell in love with a couple of magnificent boats. Too bad we have to consider $$$$$$ :)
