our new ride! 2007 Jeep Patriot... more pics to come!

The boys went to work on the boat. I went to check on them. I found Nathan shimmying up the mast. YIKES! He of course, had the biggest smile on his face. To put it in perspective, on the bottom picture you can see a green tarp. I can stand up under that tarp. Nathan is higher than he looks!

The Boat Show, the Boat Show the Great Seattle Boat Show..."


I'll start a few days ago (January 27, 2007) Vin and I headed up to Seattle to look for our dream boat. We have been going to the boat show since we met. This time I took a ride ON TOP of the Alaskan Way Viaduct...never been up there before. Notice Vin looking out the window in the rear view mirror. If you are from the greater Seattle area, you will know why this is newsworthy.

Then it was off to the "Boats Afloat" show on South Lake Union. Our new dream is a 40-foot Sabre...
Proof that I was there...
