Backed her up like a Tonka Truck.

Remember a few days ago I told you Captain David was teaching me how to leave a dock. I got a bit scared the first time pivoting this big boat so Capt. took over when I got nervous. Today I took her all the way out of the dock, through the channel and into Lake Michigan. So excited. As I was listening to David last night commenting about how I and women in general on larger boats were the ones who had to bear the rain, cold, heat, fog, mishaps docking, while the Captains stayed dry at the helm, I began to think. As I am not particularly crazy about being on the bow of boats in rain I better well learn to dock Stella as well as take her out! A new challenge on the horizon.

Today's ride is starting to lull me to sleep, but only two people on the boat, so that is a big no.

Blue skies and calm water, Tracy
