February 2005

Cruisin' and Smoozin'

Accompanied by Jan and Terri (Kiva), we began February with a land yacht trip to Port Aransas to see Larry Joe Taylor play at the Third Coast Theater. LJT is not only a great singer/songwriter, but quite funny. Later, we had nightcaps at Shorty's Bar. LJT and his band showed up, and Terri and Deanna had their picture made with the singer.

Nick had to fly to Miami for a business trip in mid-February. As luck would have it, the Miami Strictly Sail Boat Show was taking place the day after the business meeting. Nick was able to spend a day at the boat show, where he had his picture made with Bob Bitchin and Jody of Latitudes& Attitudes magazine. Nick and three other Cisco employees also enjoyed a day of sailing on Biscayne Bay with Capt. Bill Olsen, who had brought his catamaran from Kemah to Miami for the boat show. (Capt. Bill helped Nick bring the Brewer 42 across the Gulf in December.)

For the President's Day weekend, Deanna's mother and stepdad were our first guests aboard the new Caribbean Soul. We got lucky on the weather, with 81 degrees and 20-25 knot southeast winds that made for an exciting sail.
