Hanging with friends at the island.

Audra and Ryan visit for the holidays.

Getting creative with the space. We are collecting ornaments from places we have traveled.

One of the first pictures we have of her under sail.

Happily making the adjustment to boat life.

Our birthdays are just a few weeks apart. We celebrated 50 in style.

Bill announced our engagement at the birthday party!

Dad came to the party. I think it's the first time he's been on a boat since I was a kid.

We had a great visit with Bill's granddaughter, Tiana. Tiana was our first overnight guest. She was visiting from Minnesota.

We were very excited to get the survey and sea trial complete.

We visited the Montauk Lighthouse at the very end of Long Island. This lighthouse is always mapped on the test charts for sailing. It was fun to go see the lighthouse after seeing it on charts all the time.
