Much like the space shuttle command countdowns, we go through our own systems checks to ready for departure.  This is the last opportunity to get “parts”, oil, fuel at a “reasonable” price and within a reasonable amount of time.  While it is available in the Bahamas, it is actually shipped in with a hefty freight READ MORE

Why does it always seem to be a mad “rush” to hurry up and wait?  We rush back from the holidays, rush to get provisions, fuel, Pumpout, refrigeration checked and now WAIT!  The weather has to be favorable, not to mention the tide has to be up for us to get out of where we READ MORE

We did it!  With the boys all checked out by the doctor and approved for travel, we packed up and headed home the afternoon of the 20th.  We left around 4:00 with the hopes that the boys would sleep in the car on the way.  WRONG!  Seems they were just as excited as we were READ MORE

Waking to a blanket wrapped warm and cozy around you is one thing but to wake up early for what you know will be a long day on “the road” to a blanket of fog is no fun.  We watch as the moments flee away from us and try to decide if we hang here READ MORE
