I have a smile from ear to ear tonight. My wife, as you know, had a heart attack and bypass surgery in June
Today was her first day on the boat this season.
I keep it in Deale for trophy season, and didn't put it in my "home" slip until after June. She has recovered enough to work 2 days a week, and today, we took a boat ride
We left Bodkin Creek with light winds and ran across the bay, through Kent Narrows. We explored the marsh on the right behind the Kent Narrows Yacht Club, as well as the condo's/townhouses on the left at Oyster Cove.
It was a great day to explore.
On the ride home, the winds had shifted and it was a little bumpy from the south. I was keeping a close eye for debris, but a quick glance to my port saw her holding her chest. I backed down the speed, and we leisurely crossed the bay back to the western shore.
Once on our side, we went to Stoney Creek Inn for a wonderful dinner. We have been home for a while now, but I had to put this in a post. I hit the jackpot when I married her
This will probably be her only trip on the boat this year (with weather becoming cooler). However, it is one I will not soon forget.

The water temperature was 69* on the FF. Time for the bait to start leaving the rivers with temps cooing. Fish should be schooling. It's about to get good
