FOURTH DAY IN BLOCK ISLAND July 16, 2026  Scott takes a picture of the sunrise while taking Immer out for his business. Then back to bed.  We all sleep in this morning.  The three amigos. Mike comes by ferry. Scott and I have lunch with him at the Oar.  Tim joins us at the end.  He just got up, he wants breakfast.   Old friends. All of a sudden Tim feels restless and wants to do something. So he goes paddle boarding.  "Let's meet us at Champlin's" we say. He shows us the wrong direction so we correct him and watch  him go.  Marisa, Mike, Scott and I walk the beach there. No Tim. We have a drink and watch all around. After an hour we come back and here he is. Dude you showed me the wrong way, Ballard's is not over there. Scott and I : not Ballard's,  Champlin's.  Tim : Champlin's ooooh! Now I get it. Ribs for dinner. Thank you Tim for the meat and string beans. Thank you Mike for cooking. We contribute with pesto potatoes. ...

  A FULL BLOCK ISLAND DAY July 15 2026 We wake up at 5 as usual, take the pugger for a walk at Champlin's. He is not happy about that but he has no choice 😆. Sun rise is always a treat to the eye. Then we go to Payne's.  Immer agrees with that because there's food there. I share my delicious breakfast sandwich with him There we see a yacht named  SKYFALL . I research it and find out that it is 190f. long and it is for sale for 24 millions. It can accommodate 14 guests and 14 crew members. You can charter it for 290,000$ for a week.  We see only one person on it. Now that the puggy is tired, we're going to Scotch Beach.  On our way to dinghy beach we notice our dock mates Chris and Donna are there. We stop by to say Hello. On the other side of Corn Neck road the water is refreshing.  Scott is in his glory. I sheepishly go in one step at a time.  We walk pass the town beach then turn around.  For years and years I've been too shy to do yoga in publ...

  July 14 2026. Block Island Up at the crack of dawn to feed and walk as a family. Baby sharks? Nope,  dogfish One leg duck... poor ducky He has trouble to follow 😔  Viking for sale.  Anyone interested?  I think the Canadian wild fires color the sun red.  Expresso martini for Tim, Scott and I.  Moscow mule for Marisa since they don't have hard kumboucha. Then wings at Poor People Pub then walking back to our boats. The boys stay up late, chatting and signing. The girls go to bed early. Good night!

  TODAY WE GO TO BLOCK ISLAND  July 13, 2026 7:00 o'clock : the beginning of our journey to Block Island.  The Sheperds, who we were concern about them getting up early are ahead of us... thanks to Scott the waker upper 😆. Here's a screen shot of their first interaction:  Those two, I don't know how they are still friends  😆  Mom and Dad are excited. Puggy doesn't care  "Grand booat, Grand booat take us to Block Island" 🎶 🎵  From Mystic we head south across Fishers Island Sound then east and to Watch Hill pass to Block Island sound. Except for some chop from the incoming tide at Watch Hill pass we have a good ride. Pretty sights Furthermore on the yellow brick road. Do you see what I see? We started to see our destination at 7:49.  Smooth seas, clear views.  Life is good. 8:20: we're pretty much there.  Surprisingly Tim is quite behind.  Well his new boat is heavier than ours.  We're waiting for them and enter the Grea...
