Goodbye Lily Pad.....Hello Yellow Brick Road

Good Morning All,

After having Lily Pad, our much-loved 1974 Burnscraft houseboat for 11 years, we are moving on to Yellow Brick Road, a 1987 Jefferson 42. Although Lily pad has twin Perkins diesels and a semi V hull, she is really hard to maneuver, and not comfortable in 3' plus. Really more of an ICW boat. We are really looking forward to expanding our horizons! We will be picking her up in Key West in a couple of weeks and heading back up to our slip in Nokomis, just south of Sarasota. Anyone heading that way? It would be fun to convoy with another boat or two...

Best,

Davis and Carla Carver

Wifey B: Are you a munchkin? They're the ones who sing:

follow the yellow brick road

follow the yellow brick road
follow the yellow brick road
follow follow follow follow follow the yellow brick road
follow the yellow brick follow the yellow brick follow the yellow brick road

you're off to see the wizard the wonderful wizard of oz
you'll find he is the wizard of wiz if ever there wiz there was
the wizard of oz is one because, because, because, because, because, because, because of the wonderful things he does
you're off to see the wizard the wonderful wizard of oz



Then Elton John just says Goodbye to it.
