Boating

Imagine this scenario: Sunday afternoon. Sunny blue skies. 65 degrees. Good friends. Boat. And there you have a very pleasant afternoon.

The Penny's took us out on their boat and we cruised the intracoastal waterway. A detour to Figure Eight island (a private island only accessible to non-residents by boat) and we found a small beach. Lucy was the only one crazy enough to go swimming, and boy was she cold afterward. Henry had a play in the sand before a quick dip. He enjoyed floating in his life-jacket with Andrew pulling him though the water.

After 3 1/2 years this was my first time on a boat in Wilmington! Lucy and Andrew had been crabbing with the Penny's before but for Henry and I it was our maiden voyage. Good timing just before daylight savings ends next week.
