Who is the Spoiled Boat Princess?

We got back home today after 3 days on the road. It's good to get out of the truck and back home. We've drove about 10 hours each day. Left here, drove to Charlotte, then Atlanta and stopped in Raleigh then back home. It was a long trip.


Boodles Sleeping
Boodles got back and is now sick; she threw up 4x on the boat. We don't know why she is throwing up. But this is her sleeping on the couch covered up with her head on the pillow. She stayed there for hours. Tom was able to leave the boat for 3 hours without her. But by the evening she was back to normal. And I had to take her to the Men's Den so she can visit with her friends up there.


Last night we stayed at Neal's and Nicole's and Boodles woke them both up early, but jumping in bed and giving them kisses. They may not admit to it, but they loved it! Mercedees ate tom's toothbrush and toothpaste while Boodles kept us occupied. They worked well together. Benz was the innocent dog in the trio. Which usually he is.


I guess Tom will be working on his new Project instead of the boat for the next few weeks, I will upload the photos of the new project as soon as it quits raining here and I can get pictures. After 1500 miles 3 states, and 3 days, he chose one.


Its a 1971 El Camino, 4-speed and has to be ready for the Charlotte Car show in the first week in April. This is an easy job he says, solid car, just needs to replace the front end, and get it running. He has to have ready to paint in 2 weeks so he can get it in the shop. So he will be heading back to Charlotte soon. (him and Boodles)... We are hoping that this car sells, and he can bring home the Expidition that he has left there and I don't have to go get him. We're just waiting on the title to clear NC DMV (and most of you know how I feel about NC DMV) and release it to us which should be done soon.


Other than that everything is still the same, we're heading to the Outer Banks on Sunday to celebrate my birthday hopefully the rain will stop by then. I want a metal detector for my birthday so I can scour the beach for treasures. Maybe Tom will read this and get the hint!

Then next week, we're on the road again heading to the other side of Raleigh to get parts for the car. LOL, and people thought we would be sick of living on a boat. Hell we're only in the boat to sleep at night. Most of the time we are off the boat doing something. And the weather is changing, been in the 60's for a few days now, it's been nice. I love it here!
