North Carolina 2017

We just got back from a very relaxing weekend in North Carolina with our friends we met on a cruise 11 years ago! They get together every year, but with the girls it is hard for us to get away to go see them. It had been five years!

We arrived Saturday around noon and we were going to take the pontoon boat to a restaurant for lunch. However, it wouldn't start. Lucky for us, Ken bought a sail boat this summer so we took that instead!


Dan was thrilled to help with all the sails. He just loves doing that! 


But Rhonda was the first mate and could do it with a glass of wine.







We all gravitated toward one another on the original cruise because we were all much younger than most of the passengers. Nowadays we've caught up! Ken is 74!



The rest of the night we just talked and talked. In the morning we woke to this amazing sunrise.


After a leisurely breakfast, we went for a nice long walk. Then Ken and Dan switched out the battery of the sailboat and put it in the pontoon boat. We spent the afternoon cruising in the pontoon boat.





We capped off the day with a movie and pizza back at the house. Dan and I had to leave the next morning, but not without our own batteries charged.
