New Cat In Town

Nancy brought home a kitten friday “just until she can find a home for it”.. however it now has a name “Lucy” and there are kitten toys mysteriously appearing.. so what do you think the odds of a home appearing are?

She has already moved into my territory…

It was funny this evening.. my mom and sister are complaining that the kitten wont leave them alone when they are eating. it keeps trying to get to the food.. They have been locking up when they eat.. I sat down with a plate of food after they had eaten and the kitten was back out. It made a beeline for my plate.. I growled at it once and it didn’t bother me again. It just told them you have to know how to talk to it.

Sailing Sea Puppy 7-9-06

Just me and Cary took Sea Puppy out sunday and it was a beautifull day.. the temperature was in the high 80’s and there was a nice breeze till late afternoon.. The seas were very low.. maybe 6 inchs to 1 foot of swell and just the cats paws that the wind rasied on the water.. We were one of the first boats out on the water. We got out and sailed about 2 miles from the inlet and then turned around to go mess with Breck in Runaway his Cabo Rico 38.

(ive been calling it a Cabo Rico 39 but he told me its actually a 38.. lol even though its 40+ over all including the bowsprit.. oh well boats are weird)

Racing Sea Puppy 7-8-06

Well I got my mom and sister to come out with me to race. I also had Cary on board as crew… it started out as a great day. We got out on the ocean and the breeze was at about 10 knots. It was decided to do a leeward windward race to the sherman a wreck 6 miles away.. I got a great start and we poled out the 155 and just started shooting for the mark at about 4.5 knots… the only boats ahead of us were an S2 and Tarten 10 everyone else was falling behind 🙂
then disater… my sister started getting queasy….. 🙁 well she said she could tough it out so we kept going.. then my mom went below for a second to use the head… she enver made it that far.. she popped back into the cockpit saying that being below started to imeadiatly make her queasy to… then it went down hill till she was looking really grim…

Sailing Sea Puppy 7-4-06

I went out sailing on sea puppy today with Cary Huhr. The motor out and back in on the waterway was brutal. Against the tide both ways with the current running 2 knots. Then add in 4th of July traffic and crazys..

We actually ended up saving a jet skier that fell off his jet ski and was having problems getting back up on it or his girl friends jet ski. I saw him fall off and his jet ski was 20 yards away by the time he was even able to look away with the wind and current carrying it faster than he was able to follow. I throtled down just a knot or two and when it became obvious that he wasn’t going to be able to get on his girlfreinds jetski with her motored over and threw the ladder down and let him climb up on Sea Puppy.. Even though he had only been in the water for a couple minutes he was out of breath and we had to help him up the ladder.
