Day 349: Cap’t Andy’s Sunset Dinner Cruise, Part 5

Thursday, December 5, 2013

Whew!  These Cap’t Andy posts always seem to need a lot of photos!  Well, I am not stopping now! Cap’t Rick, our Skipper on this voyage, was having his birthday cruise.  So his wife came along for the ride.  They spend two weeks every winter in Big Fork on Flathead Lake. (All Canon 7D) He […]

Day 348: Cap’t Andy’s Sunset Dinner Cruise, Part 4

Tuesday, December 3, 2013

Another pair of Boobies! (Canon 7D unless other is indicated) One of the big problems in Hawai’i, besides the pigs, chickens, mongooses, rats, and so on, is goats. See him?  Right there! And the water is always breaking along the shore… There was a trail maintenance party working up the hillside. They are all volunteer […]

A Canadian with a Tri-Corner Hat…hmmm… (All 7D unless noted!) A neat and tidy knot. Well, it is a sailboat. (PL-2) The well equipped and dashing whale watcher. (PL-2) A notable lack of whales, however.  It is the very beginning of the season for them in Hawai’i, and only a couple had been seen so […]

Day 345: Cap’n Andy’s Sunset Dinner Cruise! Part 1

Sunday, December 1, 2013

We went on Cap’t Andy’s Sunset Dinner Cruise again because we liked it so well last year.  It was a beautiful day, although the wind was a bit contrary, and we didn’t get to sail as much as previously.  We ate lunch at a little place recommended by a friend of the Dailylife Wife, which […]
