Visit to the Autumn Borne by friends

This past weekend we had close friends visit us on the Autumn Borne.  Mike Collins, and Sue Miller came from their southern home, up near Tampa/SP to stay on the boat in the harbor.

Considering that Sue had never been on a boat before...and the wind did pick up to near 20 knots at the end of their stay, she did great!!!

Mike, Rob Davidge, and Sue on the P/V "R&B Haven.

We even took a small dinghy tour of the multi-million dollar homes along the canals, back by Sister's Creek.   Photo below...

Looks of intensity, but I think they enjoyed the dinghy rides!  :)

We looked all weekend for the manatees that have been visiting our harbor here...  
Didn't see a one until the hour that Mike and Sue left....  then we had one playing at the fresh water hose along the main dock at the City Marina...  Cute!  (photo below).

Mike and Sue got a chance to see the DOCKSIDE restaurant and bar (for happy hour, and dinner) , and the STuffed Pig restaurant (for one breakfast).

after final breakfast  -  Wonderful visit...

Great Weekend.
