We don’t have a Christmas tree on Exit Strategy yet, although unspoken peer pressure among our friends in the bay may change that before too long. Each evening, we notice another sparkle of Christmas lights on the island or a neighboring vessel. Lights have been hoisted to the top of masts or in and around cockpits. Heck, some boaters even have their dinghy decorated with red bows and bells!
I pause here to introduce you to two cruisers in the bay who decorate for Christmas with great spirit and lots of good cheer! Christy & Boomer (s/v Pirate’s Lady) are a fun-loving, energetic couple who have become very good friends. The other day we met them downtown for the annual Lighting of the Christmas Tree and all its merriment. Captain Dan & I probably looked like little puppies as we followed them around to view the best of the festivities, but didn’t mind because they always seem to know how the most fun can be had around these parts.

| The camera man was tipsy when he took this shot- or did we take a shot? |
