Fishing with Bren and gang

We sadly said goodbye to the Chuprinko's on Valentine's Day
More of the expedition
Barb--still can't see how green she looked, Denny, Fred and Bea

Pelican feeding

Speaks for itself!



On the bow--sitting: Bea, Diane and Barbara
Standing: Donna and Linda.
Barb gets seasick but said she wanted to see Bren fishing and having a good time.
What a trooper!!! You really can't see how green she is in the picture.



We finally got a calm wind day so we could go out fishing while the Chuprinko's were visiting!
We did have to wait for the fog to lift.
Neil, Uncle Dick and Bren in there usual spots.

Bonefish Marina

Returning to Bonefish Marina
Leaving Bonefish harbor

Denny took these picture from the 14th floor of Bonefish Tower
As you know, we have taken a break from blogging not because we were not doing anything but because we had so much to do.
We were taking Shore Thing for a sea trial after Ed changed the port prop due to vibrations. It unfortunately did not solve the problem.
