The challenge is having time to spin.

Spinning Around

Out and About Ventura

7/15 - 7/17/25

 

July 15 ~ Spinning on Nell while The Man washes the boat.

Nell is a beautiful boat. This is only the second time I have been onboard. I love the new flooring and hatches that The Man built. Makes a person wonder why I don't spend more time at the boat.
