I'm On A Boat

Yup, that's the Bay Bridge, the section that was open at the time, at sunset from the deck of the Bay Celebration. I took this grand photo with my cell phone on this three hour tour of the bay. It was a great surprise and a free ride thanks to a friend of mine who had snagged some tickets. The weather was perfect, we saw the sea lions, even took a detour to the area of the bridge that CalTrans was 'working' on. It was the longest I'd ever been on a boat of that size. I've been on a houseboat before up at Lake Almanor, but I was about 14 when I did that. So it's been a while. And I must say that even though I'm not a big water person, I do love boats. I don't know why exactly, but there's just something about them. Maybe because you can just go wherever you want with no road signs or directions.

In other unrelated news, Big T will be going to his first Tiger Cub meeting tomorrow night. I'm heading out today to get the rest of the patches that I will need to attach to his uniform tonight. He's pretty excited, though I may have really built up the Pinewood Derby. Perhaps a bit much, but it's going to be great. I think he's almost as excited as I am. He did love wearing that Tiger Cub hat.
