I don't think Mr S. has ever considered me ornamental...more like ape
deck....we're going in next week....BTW, we really love MYC...it's a great
place....Chopper has learned how to jump from the dinghy up the ladder
into
the cockpit and how to leap over the gunnels to the dinghy to get off the
boat....he still can't swim, though, so he has to wear his life jacket to
and fro....

We seem to lose a few folks to the MYC annually. Guess it's a good deal as
well as a nice place.

Good thing for Chopper to wear the life jacket. A couple from Whitehall
Landing dragged their poor, dead Lab out of the lake last summer after the
dog fell off the boat. Swam until he became fatigued and drowned. The
owner said he was so sure that the dog could swim better without a life
jackets. Famous last words, the idiot.
