“See that boat? We live wherever she is.”
Family Time
When we left for The Bahamas in 2021, I had no idea how hard it would be to not see my family for four months. Well, I found out. Family is everything. They make you happy, stressed out, feel loved, exhausted, and exhilarated all at the same time. Nothing else I know of does that, Read More
Who Does YouTube Think They Are?
Ahhh, YouTube. One of the greatest apps created. People all over the planet, talented or not, wealthy, modest, or not, super good looking, fairly attractive, or not, anyone can be a star. All you have to do is crack the code. Oh, and don’t piss off the gate keepers. Well, I’m not in this for Read More

Left in the Fog
Wow, what a way to go! We couldn’t see anything as we left The Harborage. It was time to go back to The Bahamas, and we couldn’t wait. But we weren’t prepared for this type of send-off. Our boat neighbor, Brenton, hopped on board to go with us to the fuel dock, and we very Read More
