Biscuit to Splash Tomorrow

Oh yeah, Biscuit is the name of our boat. After all the deliberation and suggestions, Biscuit just came to us in a conversation one evening at a friend's house. It was spoken and we knew that was it. Pretty dumb name, but it fits. We know it walks the fine line of being cutesy, but it doesn't cross it. And it's dog related! (Sadie likes biscuits)

So anyway, she goes into the water tomorrow morning. Dennis has been obsessively working on making her floatable.
We hope he has succeeded. She's cleaned up nicely with new paint, in and out, and buffed topsides. We'll have to post some pictures once she's floating. Our first sail will probably happen this weekend. Then we get to see what the ol' girl can do. We aren't expecting to break any speed records.

The hair is showing signs of curls, believe it or not!

The garden grows, except the basil. Life goes on... without basil.

No basil!? Such a tragedy. I was so sad on Sunday when they had no basil at the grocery, so I can (sort of) feel your pain. :)

I can't believe you are curling either! That's pretty cool, sis!

Thanks for your kind note on my blog, too.
