Our Time in Newport Ep. 233

Loved the video. Is Lenny allergic to peanut butter too? I only ask because my son has a nut allergy and peanut oil can be transferred from skin and lips, so if you eat peanut butter and then give him a kiss, you could set off a reaction. It’s a big overhaul getting used to checking all packaging and making things safe but you do get used to it. X

Riley--I just watched the most recent episode. You guys make me happy. So I just want to make sure you are getting appropriate care and follow-up for whatever they biopsied on your arm? This coming from an oncologist. I would like you guys to continue making all of us smile----Lenny is soo cute. Cheers

Lenny has the look of a future Pirate! Cheers Elay don't worry about Lenny's grinding totally natural and no real way to make him stop

Hi guys! Enjoyed this week's video, as usual. Please do update us all on Riley's pathology results. I also wanted to ask about an order that we placed for the Sailing Guide book back at the very end of November. We have yet to recieve any updates about the order other than the initial confirmation. Has there been some kind of delay? Is there any names of getting an update?

Love watching a lovely happy family together sailing the ocean blue. It's a joy to see such a happy little family! :) Take care of yourselves, and thanks again for sharing your lives with us. And YES, LOVE all natural PEANUT BUTTER!

Wanted to say seeing Lenny in each video has been so helpful for me. I can go from being uptight and in a foul mood to a big smile in a second when I see him. If you are ever in Northern Ohio.

Saw that Riles may have a problem with skin cancer. I spend much of the summer months on the water and have had to have several skin cancers removed. My question is: what sunscreen do you use? and second do you think that using sunscreen really helps?

Just joined as a Patreon after a number of years watching your videos. You guys are awesome - such an inspiration to so many. Although I did not get to meet you at the Annapolis boat show, it was good to see you both as the catamaran I was skippering was close to LV. Looking to purchase my own cat now and hope to see you on the water one day. If you are back in Annapolis and need a dock, contact me. All the best!

Bruce from Bathurst NSW here (my first Comment ever after 5 years of dedicated viewing); met you fleetingly at Patron gig in Annapolis, an encounter I cherish. Riley, maintain your skin cancer scrutiny and prevention; I had a lump cut from my right bicep last May (5 stitches), non-malignant. Elayna, 'throw' anyway that works for you; your excellent broader skill-set compensates for any short comings with underarm / overarm. Your videos shine. And as for parenting (as with your sailing and boat craft skills), you two have nailed it; Lenny must be the world's happiest baby/child. Well done. As a parent with 5 now-adult kids and 12 grandchildren, my only suggestion/advice is: don't stop at one. Now you've experienced and managed Lenny's first year, you're clearly up to it. Multiply your joy. Stay safe, you magnificent dags. Thanks for bringing some joy to the world. Sail on.

Yesss, its a milestone for me - finally have caught up after watching all your vids.. it was a lot! ;-) And yes they’re great, so keep ‘em coming!

I literally think of that Slip Slop Slap ad every time I put on sunscreen, It will be stuck in my brain forever. Just played catch up on all the episodes WOW. You guys have been busy! Newport looks like an awesome town! Lenny's little gremlin smile is hilarious every time. Thanks for the entertainment as always guys!

Love your humour! (All three)

Peanut Butter, food of the Gods!

To add to your Newport history: Many a wealthy sea captain and steamship owner had large houses in Newport, but the mansions were built as summer homes for the UBER wealthy during Americas GILDED age (1880-1900). They would escape the hot and humid New York City on a steamship, and not return until the heat broke in September. Names like Vanderbilt (NewYork Central Railroad), Astor (RealEstate), Duke (Energy), Goelet (Banking) and more.

Nice to see good old American History coverage from this perspective. I will go ahead and mention it, since it looks like most other colleagues have, "Lenny footage brightens my day!" As I am sure you both understand, we get to see you but rarely you seeing us. So, to see Lenny actually get to full stand mode was really the entire episode for me! Keep up the outstanding work and be safe!

Hope alls good with the test! It’s Crazy they needed to take so much skin. Can’t wait for the crossing vids

I hope it is good news back about the test! Love watching your videos early in the morning before I head to work! Such a great pick me up for the day! xo

so...a few things: Oh boy, Lenny has to be walking and running by now. Watch out! That is the cutest kid!!! Riles, I'm assuming the stitches were from some sort of skin/sun issue? Lastly, I've been married to my wonderful wife for 35 years and I still make fun of how she throws like a girl.

Been to Newport, wonderful history & homes. Glad you were able to stop. I have had a few inches of flesh chopped off also so do always be careful. I still have a problem watching & seeing all those ropes! And I will sail in one of those very small boats before the time comes. Not as many ropes. Great shots, luv'ya!

Did y'all get a new lense? The quality of this video is AMAZING!!

Wonderful video!!! Looking forward to seeing the next one

This was one of my favorite videos to date since I live in Narragansett, RI across the bay from Newport and it is truly a fabulous place to live. And Lenny was awesome too! He makes me laugh so much and I kept replaying some spots;)

Another great video. Lenny stealing the show, of course. Amazing amount of talent and work going into these. Thanks for the entertainment!

Sunscreen sunscreen? Sunscreen, sunscreen sunscreen... sunscreen. Sunscreen? SPF...

Looking good! Lenny's first word will be coming soon, hopefully somewhere in the North Atlantic, and quite possibly it'll be "Yahtzee!"

Love love love ❤️ Lenny is doing great :) I love his cheekiness and his smile is infectious. Great job with the slip slop slap advertising - ‘no hat no play for you today’ but even better that you are looking after each other with skin disorders 😳 As always love your work :) We are caravaning down the east coast to Melbourne- hopefully we will arrive before Australia Day as we have tickets to the tennis. The devastation along the way is both shocking and upsetting in so many ways. Thank you for cheering us up xx 😘

Absolutely love everything about this video!!! I love the return to the old style videos where you talk about the history of the places you are visiting. Always loved that. Lenny is of course hilarious and the quality of the video is superb ! A+++

I think the perfect amount of time to stay in one place is different every time. Partly based on how much you're enjoying it, and partly because I think we crave variety. Sometimes I'm ready for a long stay, and sometimes a quick hello is enough! Love you guys xxxx

Off to the winter Atlantic crossing videos soooooon .

Miss the when you all did the old history lessons from places you have visited in past. Thanks for sharing about Block Island!

Glad to see you guys looking after each other on that extra sun exposure side of sailing. Lenny cam is cute and showing just a bit of red hair-hmmm from Elayna's side? Always great content, be safe.

Elayna, I’m was just Wondering if your love for peanut butter and other nuts will have to be spared because of Lennys allergies now, or do they think he’ll grow out of it? Poor lil’fella looked so sad in your IG pics 🦆💋

Can’t wait for the crossing videos.

Lenny is just the star 💫 of the show! So adorable 🥰😍😇

Hope you’re heading to Annapolis after this! :)
