It's still Winter

Yep, still cold here in Maryland.  I can not wait to get rid of half of these jackets!

(a little) More storage

Frank has been taking the saw to the wood above some voids and adding hinges so we can get into them for just a wee bit more storage around the boat.  This is really helpful considering we have people trying to live/eat/work/school/play in a 39' boat.  This is a little cut out in Trent's cabin.  Wish we would have done this sooner as it gives us great access to some of the wiring!

NYC Adventure

The crew hopped on the train Thursday and headed up to New York City for a quick adventure!  We crammed SO much in to a few days!  Pizza, cannolis, bagels, Broadway, shopping, Times Square, the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, Wall Street, bus tours, the 9/11 Memorial & Museum, bus tours, and Central Park.  So.  Much.  FUN!  I thought taking the train was super relaxing and convenient.  It was freezing cold for half of the trip, but everyone bundled and made the best of it.  Best Christmas present!!!

First stop--lunch!  2 slices and a soda for $3--best deal in NYC!

Bundled up and ready to explore Times Square.

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child on Broadway!  This was really what the whole trip was built around and it was AMAZING!  Every family member loved this 2-night experience.

Empire State Building

Lady Liberty

We made it to the crown!  This was a trip highlight as well.  Amazing construction and it felt good to walk up all of those stairs.

Central Park
