Lunch at TeePee

 I got up early for a wellness checkup with the doc then sped to TeePee Mexican Food Restaurant. I met my new (46 years) BFFs. We took our time, didn’t fuss about the calories and enjoyed catching up.  I believe it’s 118 today so we didn’t chat too long in the parking lot as we were all leaving.  Went to visit Mr Harrison next, he and Mommy were sleeping when I got there so the house was very quiet but that didn’t last long.  Leslie met me there and she got to hold Harrison and have a nice discussion with him.  He is 3 weeks old today and I noticed he doesn’t have that scrunchy newborn skin any more as he is filling out. He is the cutest little punkin’. And of course I took lots of pics cuz that’s what Nanny’s do.

Sydney Jean is 17 tomorrow, we love the hippity hoppity thing she does when it’s time for puppy dinners.  Also, Auntie Leslie discussing life with Harrison.


Doesn’t he look different, our little cutie patootie.



And we have a new bellybutton.  Grant used to call it a buttonhole.

Beef ribs for smoking on Sunday, Father’s Day.  Don’t they look like Fred Flintstone Dino bones!

The sun was so bright it was hard to look at.

Tour of the Battleship Wisconsin

We toured the Battleship Wisconsin today.  We spent 5hours crawling around the ship and we both were in awe.  There’s too much to write about, so today you can just look at the pictures. Here goes: A Navy ship that had one gun manned by a crew of Marines.  This was the Marine emblem drawn by one of the Marine gunners when he was 19.  When he turned 85, the Navy brought him out so that he could climb up on scaffolding in 100 degrees heat.  It took him 4 days to complete the emblem being restored.  He was in heaven that the Navy had honored him with the task. This is gunpowder that is compressed into pellets, there are 256 pellets in one bag, it takes 6 bags to fire one gun one time. Highest point on the ship.  It’s basically the pilot house. The firing of Tomahawk missiles.  They fly 550 mph just above the ground, flying under the radar.  Read the plaque, it’s interesting. These are 5”  barrel guns, the smallest guns on the ship. Read this one, it’s part of the bigger story really inter

Patch Day

Image
  The Coast Guard issued a small craft wind advisory this morning.  We went anyway.  The winds were at 35knots, seas at 4' with a 2 second interval (that means every 2 seconds a 4' wave hits you).  A rule of thumb is 4' x 2 = 8, so a 4' wave should not be closer together than every 8seconds or you're going to get the crap knocked our of you.  We did get the crap knocked out of us.  I had to use another patch but, once again, it worked like a champ and Ellie had an L-Theanine .   A bouncing buoy, guessing it weighs 2000#        Bouncing boats    Writing the blog, David took a pic of how close we are to the bow of the mega yacht that's 3' off our swim step  That dark thing is their anchor   Bouillabaisse !!! and it was really good, loved the mussels   David's Captain's Platter, grouper, shrimp, scallops with garlic mashers and cheesy grits   Tropical Rum Punch, sweet but good!   Sign telling about the manatees   The marina's pet parrot   And if it&

Ruff Ruff day on the ocean

Shrimpers in the marina. Historical home, built  1740.  Built  1780. Built same time. Mom!! Me no like this ride. Painkiller. Container ship. New hat. Built 1740 by a Babtist preacher that spread his religion along the East  Coast. Magnolia tree for Kitty. The last magnolia bloom.  Beautiful.. . Can you say traffic!! Moon set. Beautiful. Babtist preachers home. Sunrise this morning. Moon rise last night.  Ellie was so noe-vuss today.  We anticipated smooth seas but guess what.  It was the roughest day yet.  Poor Ellie stood between my legs, leaned on my shoulder and paced.  Today the big rumbler (the engine is the big rumbler, the generator is the little rumbler) was not her friend.  She normally is very at ease with the motion of the boat but it threw us around today.  We were up at 5am, left the dock at 6:20am and started clawing our way to Georgetown.  The trip started with rough water and it got worse the further we went, outgoing tides/current were a good 3knots, wind was 18-20 kn
