A Man and his Boat

Sara's dad bought a used sailboat last year and we have yet to see it. Her dad is going to retire in September and he loves sailing, so the boat is a perfect retirement project. As a nice Boxing Day outing, we drove up to the boat's slip on Lake Pend Oreille to get a peek at her. We can't wait to be in Idaho in the sailing months!
A look at the marina (you can see that the snow is gone)
Lovely Northern Idaho landscape
There she is, in her winter coat
At the end of the dock
A man and his boat!
So lovely
This house boat/floating house continues to be upgraded!

  1. It is beautiful up there any time of the year. I'd say that boat is a bit more accomdating than the Sunfish we had long ago. Looks like a fun project. Love Mo

  3. I told Sara I think they should be called floater homes.

  4. I like being friends with "boat people." That's the best of both worlds.
