This week a year ago, dear friends and former neighbors, Britta and her mother Tammy Anderson of Harrison Maine, visited us right here on Long Island.   They they got an early season boat ride aboard The Shellerina on Great South Bay Long Island with our son Nick and Shelly below.

While we like Long Island, we miss our friends back home.    So this visit was a special day.   Getting to go boating here while their boat was waiting for ice-out back in Harrison, Maine, was a bonus for them!

The Shellerina always loved rafting up with Tammy and Ernie’s boat, as shown in this pic taken a few years ago.
