sunsets rule

I know that you've probably seen a sunset before. I have yet to see a sunset that isn't pretty. but the sunsets on a boat are a whole different story. you can nearly see every color of the rainbow in those things!!! so, I've decided to post some up for you to see. tell me what you think!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Beach Pictures

Here are the pics of the beach:

 

 

It truly, truly does

 

 

This was the path we walked to get there

 

the rocks may hurt, but I LOVED it!!!

 

that is my shadow... I think...

the flowers there are GORGEOUS!!

livin' by the beach

okay, for those of you who haven't been to a real beach (not those sandy-spots-by-the-lake kind), then you should totally start packing for the nearest ocean. it  is incredible. I will try to post some pics later.
       I think that my favorite part about the beach is the shell/rock hunting. I like the conch shells the best. I also like those smooth, white rocks you find at the water line. what is your favorite part?
       I think that there are no bad parts about the beach. there are only good parts, and better parts. an example of a good part is sand castle building, or letting the sun tan your skin. better parts are the hot sand between your toes and the finding of a really interesting shell, that you will hide in your pocket to smuggle home. what is your good and better?  

Our Master Plan

         Okay, so for those of who do not know what my family and I are planning to do with our boat Fortuitous, then continue reading. for the rest of you, this is just review:

       So, our plan is simple. We are going to sail the boat up to Maine about July 1st, then, I will keep you posted on our travels down the east coast and into the Caribbean, where we might-might, cross the ocean into the Mediterranean. its a maybe.
        currently, we are sailing our boat from where it was located, Newport, RI, to near our house, in Albany, NY, so it is more accessible when we want to move it back up to Maine.

yeah, maybe it is not that simple.
        

First time living on the boat!

Guess what? My familys new second-hand 52' nauitcat sailboat, Fortuitious, is in the water and is sailable! I am currently typing to you in the comfort of my new birth (a birth is what boaters call a bedroom).
This is the first time i have slept in my birth and let me tell you, between the gentile rocking of the boat and the soft, comfortable bed, i slept like a rock!
While on Fortuitious, my family and i are planning to set sail for the first time, but that takes a lot of preperation! We need to put the sails up, fix the motor, rig the mast, and that is just the beginning!
We are going to take the boat from Rhode Island down to Albany, New York so we can reach the boat much easier. I plan to keep you posted on our progress and tell you all about it! Keep tabs!
