A bit of a blur

I want to capture how this all went down because it is all starting to blur.  On Labor Day (September 1st)  we saw, sailed, and made an offer.  The following week we arranged insurance and marina.  We started shopping.  American Express shut off the card because of unusual activity.  Yes - we were spending like drunken sailors.  Every day we came home to a pile of gifts.   I heart Amazon Prime.

On the 7th we drove to Kinsale, VA to sign the paperwork and give the boat a good scrub.  The boat was in good shape but the dirt wasn't mine.   After we have the boat a while it will be my dirt.  I have explained this to Mark he just thinks I'm nuts.  While most of the boat just needed some elbow grease, as I mentioned before the saloon cushions needed some extra TLC.  I removed the covers and after two rounds in the front load washer they were in really good shape.  But sunshine and Febreze weren't enough for the foam.  I had new custom foam cut to go into the old covers.  Good as new and Tiki approved as you can see on the left.
