Crazy’s Adventures

And the chaos resumes

I haven’t posted, because I’ve really been enjoying my family and friends, while winding down and making sure everything is set for my return to GiGi

Day 3 at home

My family and most of my friends love RV camping. It turned out that some friends had planned a camping weekend at my favorite beach. So I was able to visit with all of them in one location.

Trying to adjust to the 3 hour time change is rough. I’m awake at 4:15 am and can’t go back to sleep. We are having the family over for a BBQ tonight. Jenna, my oldest daughter and I prepared for that, and went to town for lunch.

The whole family came out and we enjoyed my favorite backyard bar. Built a fire and sang music all night. TRULY, TRULY missed my Rylee Boone. (Middle daughter, who’s in Montana)

Day one at home

I have so enjoyed visiting with my family and close friends. My youngest daughter Jordin and I went to my favorite California beach (Avila) for lunch. When I was packing for this trip, I realized, the only clothes I have are what I would need on a yacht. Not one pair of jeans or appropriate shoes. So I went to my storage unit to grab some. Well guess what? Everything I need, is in my Jeep in Florida! The only clothes there were business clothes. So I ran to the store and bought an outfit.

There’s no place like home

As I’m flying in to San Luis Obispo, I see Pismo Beach. Then streets I recognize, then buildings. My eyes well up with tears. As I walk towards my daughter Jenna in the airport, I see she is holding a sign. My teary eyes can’t read it, but I yell “yay, how sweet of you”. As I get closer I see it says welcome home from prison! HA HA, that kid

…and something exciting happened

My final week of being alone on the boat was to be spent in Jarret Bay, Beaufort, NC. The boat would get some maintenance and warranty work. It turns out, it will be hauled out of the water, and there are no restaurants near.

Takin a Posting Break

If something more exciting happens than waking up on a beautiful boat with beautiful scenery, doing chores, relaxing, drinking….I’ll post. I’m bored. Don’t need to bore y’all. You should get an email next time I’m on!

Embrace the down time

I’ve been on this boat long enough to have my own maintenance log schedule. Some things need to be done daily something’s weekly and something’s every three months…

Freedom

I moved from crew quarters to one of the guest rooms, per bosses orders. The guest room has a sunroof so I can look at the beautiful moon and stars. I woke up at 6:30am. So dark outside. All of a sudden a bright star appears. I thought, what the heck is that?

I feel like I’m on vacation camping

Got up my first morning here. So quiet. Had my coffee. Then gave GiGi a good washing. She had a hard 3 days. By the time I finished around 2:30, I took a walk around this cute little village. Families at the pool, cornhole getting played, a family sitting in the clubhouse screened porch playing a board game. It was like something out of a movie
