Memorial Weekend 2011

For Memorial Weekend we decided to pack up the kids and head off to the boat. Departure time was Friday after work, maybe 5:40 and we got to the boat by 11:45 pm. We brought in only the tote with the kids' food in it and then relaxed in the cockpit with a cocktail before turning in at 1 am.

Saturday we worked on cleaning out the forward storage locker. Some stuff got thrown away and some was packed up to come home as it is not needed on the boat.

Later on Saturday we had friends over for sundowners and appetizers in the cockpit. I made my roasted red pepper dip recipe and some deviled eggs.


Hugh from S/V Wild Goose also came over. Their boat and ours used to be on the same dock in another marina. His wife was not coming down until Sunday so we had him over and he stayed to enjoy dinner with us.


Our friend Steve from 3 slips over came by for awhile. He is a fellow scotch drinker and cigar smoker, plus he has a great sense of humor.


On Sunday we turned the cockpit into a work zone and started re-organizing the aft stateroom so we can store provisions in there but still be able to have people stay onboard.


Here is the aft stateroom completely cleaned out.



Stay tuned for how the aft stateroom turned out. Photos to come.
