We spent Saturday on the logboom. Up early, Tom’s driver (thanks Andy) picked us up at Leschi just before 7am in the Shamrock. We motored across the lake, under the I90 bridge and were on the logboom by 7:30 – just in time to be greated by a great breakfast (thanks Tessa!).
Bloody Marys followed breakfast and we settled into a gray, but very nice day on the boom.
Tom’s boat is the ideal seafair boat. Cockpit, covered bridgedeck, the top of the bridgedeck, flybridge, bow and salon are each nice areas to watch the festivities. 6 distinct and separate areas, each could hold a party, with only 7 of us on board. Comfortable and entirely civilized.
The highlight of the day had to be the F18. It did some high speed passes at just under the speed of sound. It looked like special effects from a movie, but the halo around the jet as it goes super sonic is amazingly cool. The blue angels were great, but the high speed passes of the f18 were jaw dropping.
Sunday was house cleaning day. Jodi did an amazing amount of work. I did a timed walk up Tiger Mountain in a vain attempt to wear out Rex and get some exercise.
