I've driven the last two days while the other captain worked on the docks. At the end of the day today, he asked if he could drive tomorrow - my scheduled day to drive and our last day of cruises.
"Absolutely," I said, "I've had more than my share."
So, tonight for the sunset cruise was my last cruise of the season. And not a crazy person all day. ;-)
It has been a good experience... and we are both looking forward to getting back on the road. As we finished the last cruise and shut down the boats tonight, I said to my first mate, "I am going to miss this."
"Me, too," he said and thanked me for a good summer. We have had a good team here.
There's plenty of work to do, yet. I will spend the next few days getting motors winterized and pulling boats off moorings and put into slips. The marina will close for the season at 5:30 tomorrow.
Yep, my "fun summer job."

We had a visit today from our friends Herb and Wilma from Port Isabel. They were on their way south from the Pacific Northwest and decided to stop for a quick visit. Great to see them again! I didn't have a lot of time, but they did get to see and experience the Employee Dining Room... probably not the highlight of their trip, but it gave us a chance to visit while we had lunch.

Hi Roger and Janet,
We're trying to figure out a way to do the Teton gig and still get out to the PNW again for more cruising. Thanks for the nice comments - see you on the Brats.
Jim
