Today was boat watching duty. Madison likes to stand at attention along the river and supervise the coming and going of the mega-yachts, the water taxis and the fishing boats, both huge and modest.
Right in front of our building today, there is the most intriguing boat.
Fort Lauderdale is one of the legs on the journey of the Southern Star, a 75-foot aluminum sloop on a scientific expedition around North America to raise awareness about global warming. The boat is very different from the usual sailboats and motor yachts on the New River. The Southern Star looks like a science boat, serious in every way. Her 12-month expedition is taking her through 9 seas, 9 countries, 18,000 nautical miles and 21 carefully planned legs. Read the short entry in the logbook for today and look at the photo the crew has posted - this is right where Madison is "yacht spotter."

Good job watching all those ships Madison. That looks like fun. Have you ever been on one?
Your friend,

Madison!
You are already famous, but you were almost MORE famous with your boat watching duty today. Too bad we couldn't see your bootiful black dot on the walkway near the dock in that photo on the ship's log.
Looks like goober really is living up to his name. Hopefully you two will become good buds and can peacefully coexist, or maybe even become friends. I bet your mandad is happy to have his teen hooman so close now!
About the stinky things you find, you know, that's a real talent. You should put that on your resume. Seriously.
Goober love,
Stanley
