What a windy month April has been! We did very little kayaking or boating, but still the days flew by. Now we are back north and guess what? It is windy up here too, only it is 40-50 degrees colder! We have tons of projects to do and are settling in, although we do tire a bit more quickly the past two days since our arrival home. It was a challenging trip back north with traffic delays and more gas stops and slower speeds due to towing the Mini-Cooper (which luckily towed great with the new tires and fixed lights on the dolly). Monday wasn't quite as bad as Tuesday, when it rained to add to the fun. We had taken a different route this time (I 84 to the NYS Thruway from I 81), hoping that the road wouldn't be as rough as I 88, but it was still quite bumpy and had about an hour back up getting onto it due to construction and 5 lanes going into 1, and more 1 lane construction several times along the way. We sure were glad to get home just before dark and all systems are up and running just fine.
Before we left Jensen Beach, Dave went to one last car show with his friend Bill. It was all European vehicles and called 'Wheels across the Pond', held annually in Jupiter. He said it was absolutely amazing and way better than what he expected with all the brands grouped together, classic British Rock playing on the PA system, and even bagpipers roaming and playing throughout the event. He took lots of photos, but this is a better way to show you, by viewing the video below that he found online...
Now we are looking forward to all sorts of events up here during the spring and summer, starting with our first outboard swap meet plus the Washington County Fairgrounds Antique Flea Market this Saturday. Let the fun begin...with our winter coats on. 😉
