Sail away, sail away...

but please come right back. We went to the beach today to do a little sailing with Lee. He is on spring break and the day was gorgeous...what better way to spend a day in Long Beach, but out on the water. Aunt Jenny and cousin Gavin came along for a ride with us (Brooke and Staci).

Gavin wandered down the beach to another group of people, probably to use their toys and Brooke was more than willing to go get him. Funny thing happened, she actually joined him (yup, sat right down in the sand). Maybe she was building a relationship of trust before she asked to come back???
"Come on Gavin, over here"

So here is the skipper of the minnow that was to take us out in the bay. (I had to give a second take when I realized he was wearing my sunglasses and my hat. Now, I don't know about you, but I thought women could borrow their husband's belongings, but not the other way around. Oh well, now you know what a sensitive guy Lee really is.)


Here is Brooke with those cool transition glasses on that work perfect at the beach. She was all good with the ride, especially the part about not getting her feet wet. Lee brought the boat up on the sand.


The happy sailors: Aunt Jenny and Gavin. "Can you say, food?" Well Gavin knows all about it. He is a muncher just like me!



SLee (meaning Staci and Lee)


Lee decided to be more adventurous after leaving us back on the sand. The boat is a lot of work for Lee, but he really enjoys his time on it and sharing the experience with others. Some people spend all day golfing, others spend all day sailing...
