I KNOW this place!!!

December 23rd, 2008 by Goliath

It sure has been a long ride since the last time I wrote. I was getting pretty weary of this travel stuff. For almost two months me and my people have been puttering along in unusually cold miserable weather. No fun for people and especially no fun for dogs! The things I have to put up with. I have discovered a new place to hang out. Dad put a pillow under the dodger for me. It’s nice and warm under the sun. When the sun moves I stare at dad until he moves the pillow to the other side. Humans are so easy to train.

Well, yesterday was very pretty. Very warm, sunny and the water was calm. I was perched in “my spot”. We rounded the corner of an island and headed for an inlet that seemed familiar somehow. As the boat approached the marinas I knew where I was. I scampered up to the bow barking hellos to all along the shore. People waved and shouted hellos back. I know this place! I’m back in my winter home. We stopped and I helped mom pick up the mooring. Dad quickly launched my boat, put on the motor and soon we were ashore at City Marina. I strutted around like I owned the place saying hi to those I liked and barking at those that looked like pirates.

Today Andy came by the boat to pump us out and he remembered me! I certainly remember him cuz he’s the guy who gives me treats.

Ahhhhhhh, life is good!

About s/v Marylee

John bought a 23 foot O'day sailboat which he lovingly restored. We enjoyed sailing it so much that we bought a bigger boat, a 40 foot O'day. A couple of years ago we decided to plan for a retirement lifetime of cruising on the 40 foot sailboat. Now we are retired and we're underway on our lifetime journey on the 40 foot O'day. The 23 foot O'day is in good hands with the Fuller family.

Thank you all for your support. Please follow us along on our journey.
