A nice evening aboard The Hye Life

Rich, Lucky and I were invited to join Bob and Beth Jones aboard their 41' Power catamaran last night for cocktails. We decided it might be a good idea to leave Lucky on our boat. The Hye Life is docked right next to us. We are sharing a finger pier with them. Even though we have lived at the OYCM  marina for almost three years this is the first time we were ever invited aboard someone's boat for cocktails.  I guess if you are getting invited aboard someone's yacht this was the one to start with. "The Hye Life" is  a beautiful power catamaran but  Bob and Beth are even more beautiful than their yacht. Bob and Beth have been married for 31 years and seem to be just as in love as the day they met. We shared some life stories and enjoyed each other's company for a few hours and since we are all old folks were ready for bed by 9:30 pm. Bob and Beth are from Austin Texas and only stay on their boat a few times a year. They use a hired captian to bring their yacht to the Islands or Florida Keys and than just fly down to it We bought our dinghy from them a year ago and this is the first time we ever meet them.  I didn't bring my camera so I couldn't take any pictures but I found a picture of their boat on the internet..
We had our drinks on their bridge. The weather was perfect.
Today we are headed for Rick's 4th of July party. He is having it at a hotel pool so the boys can go swimming. Life is good here in Jacksonville . Be Blessed!
