Welcome Home, Ferry :)




Trish and Jeff brought our new ferry home from Ft. Myers. Meanwhile, there were rainbows and conversations, this one between Alan Coulter and Dave Denny. What do you suppose they're talking about?

Many Mag Movers










Lots of going, lots of stopping, and several logs got the Mag from the back of the yard to the Barron River. It was all hands on deck, combining the help of the Service Bus folks with most everyone on base.  


















This feat of physical fitness and clear communication was followed by lemonade and cookies.
P.S. Farlin seems a little wary of people... or is it cameras?

Shiny new sign




After retiring our worn and weathered sign, we installed the new DOUBLE reflective version.

Teamwork makes the dream work...

















The island buzzes with the hum of hard work: gear is put away following Pine School, sea kayaks are tinkered with, and the Puffer prepped for her seasonal launch.

Pine School kicks off the season!


Homeward Bound... An amazing sunset as the first Pine School crew returns to Sunset Island, with Instructors Dave Genova and Lee Collette tagging along. Check out Lee exemplifying physical fitness as he hauls that Action Packer! 

Turkey Day the Everglades way!


Chavo carved the bird, it was quite a feast - enough pumpkin pie to last for weeks!
