Just before Christmas

At home in the Kerikeri Cruising Club Marina Ardmachree is decorated for the holiday season and all the boats are 'ship shape' in the marina.

Anita's

We watch the weather carefully as the snow was appearing on the mountains around the Lower Mainland. Fortunately the roads were clear and dry for our trip from the 'coast' to the Okanagan and Vernon.

 A good chance to 'catch up' with Anita and friends over dinner and a glass or two.

 One of the last things to do in preparing Dutchess for her winter hibernation is getting the cover on. Starting from the top it is rolled down the sides and secured with straps back and front and underneath. In February we received a picture from John with a half meter of snow covering her.   

 Wrapped and ready for the winter snow and winds. Previous winter she has fared very well with this cover.

Rabbits and Bears
