It’s hard to believe that we are actually docked at our home port, Lakewood Yacht Club, in Seabrook, Texas. After 2 ½ years of travel, Bob and I and Spirit Dancer are going to take a well deserved rest. We have lots of deferred maintenance to catch up on, many business projects to complete and we are looking forward to re-connecting with family and friends – and our loft in The Woodlands.
On the dock to greet us were our LYC friends and buddy boaters, Peg and Alan. They were so kind to be there to catch our lines and pop the cork on some great champagne. Their boat, a beautiful Grand Banks, the Muriel June, is coming off the hard this spring in Vermont, and they will continue their Loop adventure and capture their Gold in 2013.
When we arrived back in The Woodlands, our dear friends Karen and Rhese, posted a Welcome Home sign on our gate. It was great! We did bring a little of the boat to the loft, and we will enjoy our “flat tree” throughout the Christmas holidays!
Although we won’t be blogging our adventures on the water for a while, we will let you know when we venture out in 2013 – this time to the islands, Mon!
