Dinghy Rides

  • It's always fun to take a dinghy ride. We pack a lunch - God forbid we should go anywhere without snacks and beer. We always take our snorkel gear with us, you never know when that lobster dinner Mike promised me is right under the boat. Did I tell you Mike bought a Hawaiian sling to catch fish and lobster? Mike said he sees lobsters all the time, they're just not big enough. He's waiting for the 10 pounder before he shoots. There are places here that remind me of an english muffin, you know, nooks and crannies to pull into. We went into this creek, eventually it was a dead end. The silence and seclusion is amazing. Mike cut the engine and we just sat there. You can't tell how deep the water is, it's so clear. You think it's shallow. We held hands and jumped in together. It was deep and cold. Now, how to get me back in the boat... Glad there was no one to take my picture.
