SB/LD Cruisers / Re: And so it begins... Katie'...

I'm gonna try using Instagram instead of YouTube. The short form will work better  for me, I think. Quicker, easier, don't have to put my ugly mug all over. :) I think it will work better by putting a half dozen short vids out per week, shot and sent on-the-go, instead of one long one that takes days of editing. We'll see how it goes...

My Insta channel is at: https://www.instagram.com/digitallowcountry/

First little vid ("Reel") here:

It's all about the right angle. You see her with her fresh bottom paint, and that bit of makeup makes her a beaut, from just the right angle. From any other angle, though and you'd see the teak is pealing and the gel coat is dirty, and the lines are a mess, and the canvas is deteriorated. She's a dirty, dirty thing. But; I'll take what I can get. :)

I'm slowly finding more time to tend to her, so she's getting a tiny bit better every time I visit.

Love all your posts, but these. 😔 Always a downer when one has to return to the "world". I have been working on the Orion hoping to make down there next winter. We'll see. I keep telling my wife I want to go while I'm still young enough. Reading some in your group are in their 80s gives me hope.
