Most of the prep done for our 4 day cruise around Biscayne Bay starting Friday, back on Tuesday. Family minding the ranch and restraining our German Shepheard from visitors.

So far the weather looks to be great. Winds mostly from the south in the Teens. Temp in the 70's

Boat loaded including new Porta Potti, new GPS cable and plenty of food and wine. All the electronics are charged up, Nook is loaded (including Mark Twain's Official Biography Vol 1 - part of my goal on reading up on American classics.)

Need the stress buster, we have both been working hard the past few months.

We'll Spot on Facebook. Not going anywhere near Somalia or Yemen!

Joint Decision. (Sold)
PO C250WB 2005 Sail # 841.


Moved up to C34 Eximius

I was disappointed with the new Twain autobiography. There was such a fuss made over the fact that he forbade publication until 100 years after his death. Well, his late enemies have certainly all passed on, but his editors used no common sense in choosing material! So much of it is dull, uninteresting personal trivia about his working life as an author. I would have chopped 90% out of this tome and made a readable book out of it.

Good luck slogging through!
Your mileage may vary. I would now like to re-read that tale of nautical adventure, Huck Finn.
