Road Trip

We have spent the past 9 days in lovely East Greenwich Cove. Our days have been spent helping friends Ray & Marianne renovate a house that they purchased recently. Lots of different projects - painting, installing new bathroom fixtures, nailing in a wood ceiling, and the list goes on and on......we still spend our nights on "Kismet". It has been fun exploring the area. East Greenwich has is nice town with more barber shops, hair salons and nail spas than we have ever seen! I actually convinced Jim to get a haircut - it has been quite awhile; about 5 months! Ray & Marianne have also shown us many of the hotspots here - $2.99 margaritas at Chelos and fish & chips at Iggy's in Orchard Beach. Oh yes, one afternoon we actually went for a sail - the wind was blowing about 15 knots and we had a wonderful sail. We realized that during the past year this was only the 3rd time that we went out for a daysail! Tomorrow we leave; by car, for a week trip back to Norwich. We have now been living aboard "Kismet" for a year. We love it - Jim says he can't imagine living any other way!

Maybe since Dad got a haircut you should get your toesies done at all the nail salons :)

One year, that's crazy! I miss you guys a lot and can't wait to see you again sometime soon I hope.
