I was told to buy something for the boat and I promised to blog about it once I bought something. So I pondered all summer long. A few days before we departed Annapolis, I found an end of season sale and got what I felt would be the best item to add to the boat.<\/p>\n<p>I purchased an inflatable paddleboard. It&#8217;s perfect because it can be stowed during passages when it&#8217;s best to have the decks clear, plus it can be shared with boat guests who wantg to give it a try. And, it&#8217;s great exercise to boot.<\/p>\n<p>I inflated it the day of our arrival. It&#8217;s great. I go out most days and get my paddling in. Charlie insists on joining me every time I go.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks again VGH Ambulatory staff. I think of you everytime I&#8217;m enjoying this wonderful gift.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_429\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-429\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/svbluesky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/PB170715-001.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-429\" alt=\"Gwyn &amp; Charlie paddleboarding\" src=\"http:\/\/svbluesky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/PB170715-001-300x251.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"251\" srcset=\"http:\/\/svbluesky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/PB170715-001-300x251.jpg 300w, http:\/\/svbluesky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/PB170715-001-150x125.jpg 150w, http:\/\/svbluesky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/PB170715-001-400x335.jpg 400w, http:\/\/svbluesky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/PB170715-001.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-429\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gwyn &amp; Charlie paddleboarding<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I left my job 6 months ago, my collegues collected a bit of cash and gave it to me as a parting gift.
