That's not right!

I pinch myself every time I look at a 2021 picture of CAYUGA somewhere having fun with friends. Yesterday was hoped to be the day the boat was put back in the water after just over two years. Two years. Nope, that's not right. Two years? Two years! If you know the scene, go with it...



As I started this last night, I was listening to The Stranglers' song - Too Precious - on vinyl, because I got old stuff, yeah. If you don't know the artist, you might want to, I found them in the early 80s during that wonderful time of new wave, punk, and international music influx that informed my listening habits for life. The word sublime comes to mind to describe the sound I hear in this song.


Anyway, that's what CAYUGA is. She is precious. Over the course of the still ongoing non-yachting couple of years, besides distracting myself with plants and whatever else, I've been puttering away at organizing and deleting duplicate/bad/etc photos and videos in my online storage... so I can have more photos and videos in online storage! Long live the cloud. Pretty sure most will be of CAYUGA or my gardens when it's all said and done.


Anyway, here's the memory lane of photos I ran across last night. I hope soon there will be *new and improved* memories!



I finished up this post with another great group, Men At Work: Down by the Sea. Let me share this; I love a song for the sound, often the words or meaning is not an issue or focus for me, just the sound, so anyway, enjoy it like you do. Lastly, I have much to be thankful for in general, and in spite of the past couple of years of ongoing I love yachting setbacks. Good night and stay tuned for the Thanksgiving week trials.

Let's go Baby!! Good Luck, the sound of water lapping on the hull will be magical, second only to those massive V-8 engines roaring.
