Day 7, Year 7: Getting Unstuck
Date: Tuesday, November 15, 2011
Weather: Still Warm with Temps in the 60’s
Location: Brewer Fiddler’s Cove Marina, N Falmouth, Massachusetts

Life is good. How could it not be with such beautiful weather in November? This weather is certainly a gift. And having grandchildren is a gift. Both Jonah and Sam were “on” today. Jonah is a singing and dancing imp constantly entertaining us with his antics and Sam could win an Oscar for his descriptions of characters in the “Cars” videos. As far as I can tell Lightening McQueen is the pivotal character in both. After nap today I got an hour-long presentation from Sam of the different characters. It was quite an impressive show and I’m going to have to watch Cars I and Cars II so I can be in the know. I have seen the one scene in Cars I were all the tractors are asleep in the field and Lightening McQueen (a fast, red car) and Tow Mater (a rusty old tow truck) go roaring into the field and drive right up to the sleeping tractors. The tractors startle, rear up, and fall over backwards. Jonah has this one down pat and can fall backwards just like the tractors. I wrote last night about being stuck in the mud, but it is impossible to stay stuck with grandchildren constantly pulling you forward.

We continue to have our daily morning walks, work on boat projects, and Mark is working on the newest project which is listing items for sale on Craig’s List. We have so many things that need to be sold that the advertising could become a full-time job.
