After the Storm

The last front was really a non-event through the night but all day yesterday the winds blew 20-25k. Last night we slept with blankets and today feels like a fall day. We are sitting here with jeans & sweatshirts. When we leave the dock this time we are heading North. We are ready to head home. It has been colder than usual with cold northerly fronts coming through every 3 days. I guess we should not complain, at least we get a good day in between cold fronts. We know it has been a tough winter up in New England also. We hope the weather in Florida has changed for the better. We have been hearing that it has been a cold winter there also. We are ready to get back home and heat up the pool and do some golfing.



Our day at the beach after kayaking in.






Peter uses the "looky" bucket to view coral at low tide.








Pretzel decides she will not be left on the beach alone so she swims out to us 20' off shore. the first time she tried this she was without a life jacket!! she is a determined little girl.












Kinvara dressed for the Georgetown Regatta...before the front came through!!








Coral through the clear bottomed bucket.

Hello. It seems so strange seeing you both on sunny sandy beaches while we are here in land locked Derby. I am up to my eyes in planning, exercise books, target setting, INSET training, thinking skills activities (the latest educational fad) and writing reports and individual education plans for parents evening and special needs children! Aren't you glad to be retired! Lucky you! We are counting down the weeks now until Easter, when Ryan and Katy (plus a friend) will be here with us for 2 weeks.
