OktoberFest Emerald

AIDEN SKY TRAMBONE... this kid was the highlight of our existence for the 2 days. Perfect weather.

Avalon is the best... off season

Yes it has been way too long but this little town is the same and changed very little... thank God...

 And the kids just love it when Daddy and Mommy are away... enjoying the festival

THIS IS IT

SO IT IS HAPPENING... LEAVING IN THE MORNING

WE ARE HOME

NEW HARBOR NEW MOORING ...YIPEE!

Sad at first, but then it is a New Home for the old GIRL

Yes, it was rather sad leaving but as soon as I pull in everything gets all exciting... we are with the big boys and very 21st century with water hook up and electricity... she is in her new berth so a new chapter begins...

"hike"

It is so much fun to travel like this don't you think?

swim/dive

Darl was doing her usual float and I went diving to this spot but it was not that interesting... also was trying my go pro... dive spot was west of us before Parson's

The Cove

End of an ERA

The day before... just checking to see how it is? Very busy right? Great weather.

Our neighbors, great energy you could feel it once they left... there was something missing.  Happy, very friendly family! 
Reminder number 1.

Good Bye Springie!  I love you!

Have to do this again

Man this is so much fun.... have to get more speed....

Dragon's Breath

This was one of the STRANGEST crossing. RADAR so great to have!!! HORN have to get a more powerful one... Thank You God, for no one getting hurt.

PARTY AT CHASE PARK

Adorable friends of Darl...

little movie

And here she comes....

THE BIG TALK

Yeah, everything is clearer and nothing is set in stone. Darl"s new dog is a cutie and it is so strange that she is just like Sammie in many ways....

Chase Park lunch was very comfy and the harbor cruise was just dandie ... comments were made about it ... stupid ones. Comparing it to going across the Pacific... apples and oranges.
