It's been a rather busy summer.
BB and I continue to look at boats. Wish the housing market was better so we could move and buy a boat but it looks like it will be a bit longer. Even so, we now seem to have a good sense of what we'd like so when we're able we should be ready.
My mom died. She was 89 and had in her own words "an interesting life." The funeral was a week ago with about 30 of the immediate family at the service. It was good to see everyone again, hopefully not for the last time. I've been giving some thought to an annual gathering. We'll see.
Last weekend BB and I went to the Newport boat show. It's always a treat. This year was VERY crowded, perhaps because the spring show was canceled. We saw a nice Fleming that we both liked and a lovely, though very over large, Grand Banks. The GB 46 will have Zeus drives next year and that should be a very appropriate boat for out trip.
Yesterday we dropped by Honeypot Hill orchards to pick up some pears. I've never seen it so crowded. With the good late season weather it was almost impossible to get in or out.
This should be a relatively quiet week. After the last few, I'm rather looking forward to it.
