No Boat....but we do have a Sea Monster

The boat purchase fell through in the survey. Many more things were wrong than we ever imagined, but the killer for us was the port hull had a huge delamination issue. I mean a $50k (or more) delamination issue. Just too much for us to comprehend. We didn't want to buy a boat that someone neglected those kind of issues for so long.

I guess there's another one out there for us, we're sure of it. Just not sure when we'll find it.

On the other hand, we do have a resident sea monster on our beach and the boys have definitely bonded with it. I might even say, tamed it.

We've Moved....and Bought Another Boat (almost)

Well, after a year squatting at my in-laws place in Florida, we finally moved into the realm of rental houses. We are renting a house by the Sound in Connecticut until the end of June. It's an academic rental, so the house comes furnished and we only get to stay in it until the start of summer (July here). It works out well for us because we were able to leave our furniture in Florida while we get this boat thing out of our systems, and don't have to pay to store things.

The boys are in school for the year (Cooper in K and Cole in 4th). Cole has only been to school for K, so all his knowledge has come from me homeschooling him.
