July 2012 - Week 1

SAILING!

Prepare to be boarded!


Opti's in wind!
Claire is rigging "Hale Storm"

Madi is Rigging "Hot Pink"

Geoffrey is rigging the Pirate boat
Party Island!



SWIMMING!

To date, the swimming venues include the yacht club, Party Island and Granny Beach. The water is clear and warm! We use the motorboat to get to all three venues!

CRABBING!

The King Crab contest is in full swing! Unfortunately, the crabbing has been unusually slow this year. In a new twist, the kids voted to make teams this year. Rose and I are teamed together. We haven't done very well so far, but it's a long season!


Geoffrey and Josh are teamed together as are Madi and Claire. Both of those teams are tied for the lead with 5 1/2" crabs each.


SPECIAL ACTIVITIES!

The first week of July has been one of activity and fun. As a special treat, we all went to a matinee on the fourth of July to see Madagascar 3. Everyone loved it! The movie was followed by a traditional BBQ. The evening was capped off nicely as we watched LBI fireworks from the back deck.

PAY DAY!

The kids get an allowance for helping Granny and Fodder with chores around the house. They usually save their money. Their accounts range from $30.00 to almost $100.00. Now that's savings!
