2010-10-03 – The Cleckner Kids Weekend Aboard Magnolia

On Saturday we had the opportunity to have Annette’s brother-in-law (The sisters call all us brothers-in-law, “outlaws”) and her two nephews for an afternoon sail. Bob and the boys, Noah and Jake, seemed to thoroughly enjoyed themselves.  Aeolus (Greek Mythology God of the Winds) brought us a nice breeze so we were able to share the simple pleasure of traveling with the winds.

On Sunday we had the pleasure of Annette’s sister Trish and niece Laura and her “friend” Anthony.  Aeolus was not so kind to us on Sunday. We had “plenty-o” wind to the point where we would be stretching our experience level just a bit too much. None the less we had a nice lunch on board and Magnolia’s enclosure provided a nice respite from the elements.

Before departing for the weekend Annette did the final fitting of her dinghy cover for Blossom. After much work she declared the project complete at which time I mentioned how the binnacle cover needed some work… 🙂
