Boating. Almost.

Last fall, James got a "great deal" on a "new" boat. Great deal as in, no boat is a cheap proposition. What do they call them, holes in the water that you throw money into? Yes, that's about right. And "new" as in, new to us, of course but by no means, truly new. Did I mention he hasn't sold his old boat yet either?! That was part of the deal, but somehow has slipped off the priority list. Men.

Anyway, getting side tracked here. The truth is, the boat is fun. When it works. Today we took it out for the first time this year. A test run, sort of. The good news is it was a beautiful day on Long Island Sound. The bad news is we didn't make it far into the sound before we had technical difficulties. Engine problems. As in, it almost caught on fire. Yeah. That was fun. James patched us up enough to get home and already has the parts on order needed to get us out on the water again soon. That's James for you. Anyway, it was fun while it lasted. Cece and Summit had a blast. Captain and her first mate. Hopefully we'll be out on the water again soon.
