Sailing Away

We are getting into the swing of things finally. Jacob has spent just over a week sleeping through the night although I fear that is coming to an end as he seems to be on the verge of cutting some more teeth.
We also finally took Blew Horizon out for a sail on sunday.  We know its easy enough to take it out just for a little burn but for some reason we haven't wanted to do it unless we were going out for the weekend, also the weather really hasn't been conducive.  But last weekend we bit the bullet and just did it. We left around 9am when the wind was still fairly breezy and came back around 2pm after having a bit of a rough time getting in once the wind died completely out. We still don't have an engine so its always quite an impressive maneuver getting back into our dock space. In chatting with some other boat livers in the marina once we came in I learned we weren't the only ones who hadn't cut the lines since Dec. A couple that lives on another sailboat finally went out after a 4 month hiatus last weekend too :) 
We showed our mooring to a couple looking to rent and then had a great lazy Sunday evening getting ready for the week ahead.
