Sunny and almost 60 degrees here in the PacNW this weekend.:smt038 Crazy........

Beautiful first cruise of the season.
 
Todd's pictures look great of his cruise today! He'll be along soon!!
 
Sure did! We had to say goodby to the 260DA and use it to try out our new slip (for the new boat) for the season at Salpare Bay on Hayden Island. Took the boat back to our old spot, cleaned it up with the great weather and said goodby.

Perfect day on the water, as a matter of fact it has a been a perfect week.
 
We pumped Nehalennia full of 64 gallons then left Everett at noon. We headed for Kingston and then saw how nice and calm the outside of Whidbey was so took her hard to starboard and through the cut ( if forget the name) that goes from Oak bay and Pt. Townsend bay between the mainland and Indian island...then into Port Hudson. Ran the kids into town for ice cream walked the beach, around town a bit and relaxed. It was a great day and nice run with sun on the face. My Cousin Brady, his Wife Michelle and their kids joined us. Can't ask for better weather and water conditions.

Totally jealous. Sitting here looking out at the snow on the ground, the ice on the deck and the 20 deg weather, knowing the boat is wrapped up and burried in all of it at the marina. :(

April 2nd can't get here soon enough for me :)
 
Nice pic's Todd.... I wish I could have gotten out too.....

I was at Crystal mountain skiing and when there is not a cloud in the sky like this past weekend you can see Mt. Baker to the north (by the Canadian border), Mt. Rainier to West ( it looks like you could reach over and touch it-almost) and to the south is Mt. St. Helens (volcano) & Mt. Adams.

Beautiful weekend in the Pacific Northwest.........

But shhhhhhhhh, tell everyone it rains here nonstop (please)
 
Todd, as usual great pics! We are slated for snow tomorrow, Weds and Thurs....ergghhhh
 
It's was all sun and smiles. It's just so nice to get out there in February.

It looks like you could have towed a wakeboarder...
 
Glad you got out Chris. You need a camera ...come on man!
 
Great for everyone to get out a bit, blow off the cobwebs and find out how the boat faired over the winter... Just pulled the outdrive and changed oil in it, checked and greased it and checked the shift bellows as well. dry as a bone...

anyway the weather was great as Todd's photos show...

Well, we enjoyed a full day on the water Sunday. Beautiful weather and a balmy 55 with lots of sunshine. Took the new pup for his first boat ride...

Here we are at Blake Island park...

Looks like the rain is headed our way but what a week! One of the nicest on record for this time of year. Took our new pup for her first ride over the weekend and before we could get her jacket on......plunk in the drink. I think she has a good understanding of the cold Puget Sound now.

Great pics Todd, as always.:thumbsup:

Hopefully we're not waiting until May for our next round of good weather.
 
Yes, out Sunday, overnight, stunning sunrise this morning, 16 celcius, cruised around Sidney and James Islands.... loved it!
 
We enjoyed diving in Puget Sound on Saturday, then came home to work on our TV project on the boat. My husband and his buddy spent the time fabricating a mount. We're trying it out tomorrow. I sure wish we could of been out on the water. It was beautiful!
 
Rain today and 43' what a difference. Welcome back to the rest of the Nations weather.
