It was a brisk walk of 1.66 miles at 5.2 miles per hour.  On my walk I was passing a man who had a fish on and he asked me to get his needle nose pliers.  Without missing a beat, I circled around, grabbed them, handed them off and back on track I went.  Then it was back to the Sailboat House to start working on the sailboats.  We pulled them out and rigged them and put them in the water.  Made a list of what was needed to get them ready for this summer and the youth sailing classes.  Of course they needed to be tested.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1013\" style=\"width: 439px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Sailing.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1013\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Sailing-429x322.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Sailing\" width=\"429\" height=\"322\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1013\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Sailing-429x322.jpg 429w, https:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Sailing-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 429px) 100vw, 429px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1013\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Testing out the sail boats<\/p><\/div>\n<p>When I got back in and we start putting the boats away.  I got my Blackberry out of the truck and noticed that I had missed a call.  Riverside Mission Florist had called at 1:47 and the closed at 2:00 and it was 2:43.  I quickly drove to the florist.  I called on the way and they were still there.  Picked up the corsage and headed home.<\/p>\n<p>Later in the evening it was slightly amusing watching Eric get ready for his date.  The shirt, the tie, the jacket.  It was all a step up from Levis and a t-shirt.  Once he was all ready, we got in the truck 30 minuted earlier than we needed to.  I started the engine, looked at Eric and said, &#8220;Have you got the corsage?&#8221;  With big eyes, he answered, &#8220;No&#8221; and ran back inside to get it.  We arrived in Redlands early.  As I got off the freeway, I stopped on a side street and turned on my Geocaching Navigator.  The closed cache to pop up was GC24AD1 &#8211; First Date.  I thought that was an only appropriate cache to find in the spare time we had.  We looked for another, but it was muggle difficult so we moved on to a third and quickly found it. From there it was off to the Redlands Country Club for Eric&#8217;s date.   <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As Eric contemplated his date tonight, I started the day with a brisk walk around the lakes at Fairmont Park.
