The Put In

On June 6 2011, UD and I launched the Putt-Putt.  We decided we would like to keep track of when we get it in the water each year.  This August will be 5 years that we have had the Putt-Putt, and I have no idea of when it was launched the other 4 years.  So now we will have a record.

Hitch her up UD!


Coming out of the garage after a very long winter.


Here we are at our favorite put in area in Linekin Bay.  I do the  backing up, and UD does the unhooking of the boat.


Just about there.


The Putt-Putt is in.


Leaving the put in behind us.


Here we are heading towards Cabbage Island.  They have a wonderful clambake there, all summer long.  I have been a few times, and the last time was with Darling, M, W and J.  We had a great time, and the food was wonderful.  If you would like a peek at the feast, click here, and look toward the second half of the post.  You will see three gorgeous young people enjoying their bounty.


This is the main house, and there are picnic tables over most of the island that you can plop down and enjoy your lobster feast!



This was a funny/scary thing we came upon on the way to the marina.  It looked like a person's hand floating in the water.



Upon closer inspection, we discovered it was just a glove that must have blown off another boat.  Whoa Nellie, what a relief.



The marina is just ahead.



We are just about at slip #37.




Back in the marina, safe and sound, just waiting for the next time out.



A bientot!  See you soon.

  1. Wow, what a nice, productive day off the Rocky Coast! You people make a nice team up there! I'm glad that was just a glove -- your day would have taken a gruesome turn otherwise, and that would have made for a very different post! I looked back again at the pictures of the clambake, and admired the gorgeous young people. Maybe this year on our annual BBH trip we should take our own gorgeous young people to the clambake -- that looks like fun. You are whetting my appetite for some BBH fun times!

  2. We look forward to you guys and your gorgeous young people being here! Unfortunately you usually come Columbus day w/e, and the clam bakes end by labor day. But fun will come our way, I am sure of that!
