Adam’s 25th Birthday

Went to Bill and Robin’s for a BBQ/Adam’s Pre Birthday/Bon Voyage for Adam. A good time was had by all topped off by the great Oz hat gifts from the Chun’s. Sort of a bitter sweet evening knowing that Adam would be leaving in the morning to take care of the last min provisioning of his boat and be off to Alaska. All in all. Great evening with a lot of hidden emotion’s

Happy Birthday Adam and Enjoy a safe journey to Alaska followed by a successful season.
Love Tommy & Anita

Checking Out Adam's Boat

Thur June 3rd: Bill and I shot up to Bellingham to check out the progress on the MAX POWER Adam's new boat. We stopped off in Edison at the Longhorn saloon for some lunch.

By the way those two beautiful rides in front of the saloon do not belong to Billy or myself. “Darn It!!” Edison is on the south end of Chuckanut Drive. After a couple of great burgers we headed off to Bellingham. Where we found Adam hard at work (fiber glassing) the good ship Max Power. Spent a couple of hr’s giving Adam our crappy advise and installing his new radar. All in all we had a great brother bonding day and I was able to set foot on Adam’s new boat. Looks like he will be ready to head north around the 9th of June
