Ava's new job a Photo Journalist for American Doll Rooms

Ava will begin a photo journal today for the American Doll Co, she entered a contest on her own and won. Her first photo shoot will begin after school with a doll and the room on the deck of Adventuress. She picked the outfit for her doll Samantha, which was done as she was dressing for school also. I have explained to her the importance of this responsibility and where it could take her, she is overly excited and should be. Her girlfriend at the Marina next to us is also into American Dolls, between the two of them we should get some great water photos. I am plugging away at the Boating Safety course that is mandatory now in Maryland and Va. I have successfully finished and passed 4 units out of 7. . 2 1/2 hrs for each unit with a test at the end of each unit. . . The exam is at the end of course, I will set aside my day on Friday to take this with a bottle of wine waiting when I pass. Not only should I have this(Papa is taking this through his Captains course. . his big exam is April 28th) should something happen and I am responsible to get the boat back in safely but you get a discount on boat ins. I thought it was going to be easy but I am finding out that is not so. We will be moving back onto the boat in just a few weeks and everything is shaping up nicely, can't wait. . .Spring is 12 days away, Thank You Mother Nature for this beautiful Day
