HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JORI!

Most of the day was spent at the tables next to the boats doing what boaters do best! It sure was nice to see all of the people we had met four years before.

The plan was to dine at a very popular restaurant named Mon Ami Restaurant & Winery for their Saturday night buffet! After waiting for over an hour to get in (worth every minute) the feast began! This was a special weekend so there was no holding back. Jack, Sue Jerry, Rose, Tom, Chris, Barb and I had one heck of a meal.

On our return to the marina and before we had a chance to sit at the picnic table for a night cap a major storm blew in and all hands ran for their boats to add extra lines and secure anything that could blow away. Once the boat was secured and the rain began to pelt us --- we took cover inside our boat where we stayed put until morning! The storm was a little frightening for the first half hour then settled into rain, lightening with plenty of thunder to keep us awake.

Tomorrow, Barb and I will take some time and plan the next leg of our adventure.
