"We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails. "

We are back to being contributing members of society! Danny was hired yesterday (and started today) at the first place he applied and the place he wanted to work at the most. To nobody's surprise, he is working at the local skate shop. It's right in Red Hook, so a five minute walk down the mountain from our house. (The walk home is a different story). And I'm first mate on a sailboat that makes daily snorkel trips. The boat was getting some yearly maintenance done, so it's been out of water. I actually helped paint the bottom a few days ago. The boat is going into the water today, tomorrow we are cleaning her up and on Sunday we are taking her out for a fun sail.


This is before we painted

Loved "visiting" your place last night. Now you need to find Dad a job on the boat with you before he turns any greener!
