Boat Trip 2008-Day 1

Today marks the first full day of the annual Morgan Boat Trip. We actually got started last night. Some friends of ours, The Campbell's, joined us on the push North starting around 6pm last night. I drove home from work with Bobbi and Bruce and Bob got the boats fueled up and ready to go. Rhett and Bob were working from home yesterday so they were just waiting on me to wrap up at work. It was a really nice night, if a bit chilly, and we had a pleasant trip. Originally we'd planned to stop at Port Ludlow for the evening, but given the nice weather we decided to push on to Port Townsend. We anchored for the night, rowed the pups to shore around 1am and were back and at it around 5:40am this morning.

Today is also Bob's 35th birthday! :-) I cooked him a breakfast burrito this morning and decided to stick a candle in it. Probably the first and last Birthday breakfast burrito Bob will ever enjoy :-)

Right now it is 8:30am. Rhett scarfed down breakfast and then decided he was headed back to bed where he remains. Bob is on deck with his remote control autopilot seeming happy with life.

We are headed to Henry Island outstation tonight and will probably dinghy over to Roche Harbor this evening to wander around.
