The last voyage

My dad and I went out for one last ride on the boat this afternoon. He is donating his boat to charity and the eBay auction ended yesterday so it will soon be on its way to a new owner. I couldn't have asked for a better afternoon to enjoy one final cruise.

The Yankees win!

Steve and I were lucky enough to have two Yankee tickets fall into our laps this weekend. Luckily they were for Sunday's game which was an absolute gem---if you're a Yankee fan that is! It was our first game of the season---our last in the old stadium. I'm so glad we made it back one more time.

Oh, the magic of the Matsui cookie!

The power of the "Stache"!

This view will make way for a new one. Until next year...

A perfect 10

My nephew Peti turned ten today. We celebrated with sparkler candles, lots of dinosaur-themed prezzies and a nice helping birthday antics.

Reef encounter

I went out on the boat with my dad today and we bumped into my buddies Ned and Sarah who were kayaking across Black Rock Harbor to Fayerweather Lighthouse.




Look at them master their oars!

Here's a view I will sadly miss once my dad donates the boat to charity at the end of the month. I'm very thankful to have a lifetime of fun maritime memories.

Picnic fun

Nothin' like a good ol' family picnic on Labor Day. Kids + pool=instant entertainment.

Kiss the cook---or feed him booze. Whatever works for you.

Pete and Peti---AW!

Did somebody say B-I-N-G-O?!?!

Now THAT'S good Bingo!
