Checking an Adrift boat and then beating down the lake all day long!

Today was an eclectic day. I think I spent a few hours just admiring my lovely renovated floorboards and then wondering how bad they now make the rest of the boat look!!! (only joking!). We also check out a boat that broke her moorings over night. I got an email telling me it was Lulu, but I arrived this morning to thank-fully seeing her safe and sound on her mooring. We then beat all the way down the lake in a really changeable wind today, going form a decent breeze to nothing and back again!! At least there's lots of activity on the lake today so plenty to see.
