Giving Thanks...


A fine Thanksgiving Day. It's the first time in a couple years that we haven't been to Steph and Dan's for Thanksgiving and Christmas, so like the old phone company ad says: it's almost as good as being there. Well, not really, but we did get the chance to say what we are thankful for... always an emotional time.

Joan made us a great turkey meal, Mother Nature was oh-so kind, with a glorious day: into the upper 70s with blissfully light wind (one in a row!), sunny sky, and gorgeous blue water. Yeah, we headed out on Wild Blue after our meal.


Lots of pelicans out in the jetties...


We took turns trying out the new seat - comfy...


The water was pretty calm down the ship channel and into the jetties. Maybe the Gulf will be similar? Nope - sloppy and confused (insert your own too-much-to-drink joke here); no doubt a result of the windy conditions of the past week or three. Still, a great afternoon on the water.

Yep, much to be thankful for.
