Late July - Back to Work

Cathy's new workplace.
After vacation was over, we returned to Hampton and got back to work.  And that means literally, back to work.  Cathy started working part-time at a local marine canvas shop -- not to start a new career, but to improve her skills and learn more about marine canvas techniques.  The first few weeks have been – aah – challenging.  But ever so slowly, she is learning and improving.  Who knows, maybe you can teach an old dog new tricks. 

Dave continues to look for new ways to market Orion. This led him to start working with Northstar Marine, who agreed to list the boat on their and other websites accessible only to brokers, while letting us continue to try to sell it ourselves.  Through discussions with Shawn at Northstar Marine, Dave decided to lower our asking price to $94,900.  This has resulted in our first real traffic on the boat, with several people actually coming to tour her, including someone from as far away as Toronto.

Jayden gets ready to blow out the candle.
As the month ended, we took a trip to Richmond to celebrate our grandson, Jayden’s, 6th birthday, returning to Hampton with Droz, who spent a week with us.
