Spring is coming

It was a beautiful day today, but mighty cold first thing.  I had wild vague plans that I would get up early and go sailing, but the alarm went off and I rolled over and went back to sleep for a couple more hours.  But when I took Oz for a walk, it looked so nice out there that when we got back we hitched up the boat and headed back down.

Anne came along, which makes it much more of an occasion.  We had a thermos and sandwiches while we burbled along about 3 knots, the best lunch venue imaginable. My new seat add in makes a good tea tray as well.

There was a bit of bad behaviour at the ramp coming in, one boat speeding to get in front of us, some guy with his boat half on and half off his trailer blocking two ramps, another guy taking an interminable time moving while he took photos of his kid with his mobile phone.  But luckily we were totally relaxed, and let it all wash over us.  I haven't taken the Core Sound out for a couple of months, so it was good to get it back in the water, and everything went pretty smoothly.  Although I did forget to take a bed or mat for Oz, and he was not too happy, as he gets very sleepy and he wants somewhere comfortable to take a nap.  I will put a mat on the check list.
