Welcome


Welcome.

I created this blog to document the sights of our boating season
for our family and friends to follow.

Enjoy the tour.

Well, it's been a month since we returned from the Caribbean Cruise and I can't really say we've been up to much.

I pulled up the view from the Straits this afternoon...

It doesn't look like there's any threat of boating up there for a week or two yet.

On the other hand, we've had our days here in the sunny south that weren't exactly toasty.

Of course those days, it was well below zero in Michigan so I don't feel too bad about a couple chilly mornings at the freezing mark.  At least the water here isn't frozen.

Speaking of water and the sunny south...

That's not so much the case today.  When it rains down here, it usually rains a bucket full.  Hard to believe water can actually pond on this soil.  It's sandy like the beach.

In other news, we took a "fun" day and went to Disney World for something to do.  We went to the Animal Kingdom in the morning.

It was about what I expected.  A fancy zoo with a few rides mixed in.

That kept our interest until about noon, then we shuttled over to the Magic Kingdom for the afternoon.

We hit all the popular attractions there, Tiki Birds, Space Mountain, Bear Jamboree, Presidents, etc. then hung around for the evening electric light parade.

That's a pretty nice show.

Outside of that day, it's been time plugging away at the reconstruction of "work island".  Good news is that the construction is complete.

There's new paneling on the walls, new electrical and lighting, new window trim and mini-blinds.  Only thing left to tackle is to replace the flooring...eventually.

Tomorrow is March and northern boating should be on the horizon, although after looking at the conditions, I'm not too confident that it's going to happen anytime soon.
