Happy Thanksmas



November 21-27, 2021
Happy Thanksmas.  Our daughters came down with their family from the States. We figure since we will not see them for Christmas, we would celebrate Christmas and the American Thanksgiving.  
We had so much fun. 
We even played bowling on Thanksgiving Day.

April 13 & 14, 2022- Treasure Cay

Image
April 13, 2022 7:15am-  Having our coffee and breakfast before leaving Great Guana.  8:30am- Anchors are going up and heading to Treasure Cay.  It is only 9.5 kn miles.  Winds are 15-16mph from from SE with 2 ft waves.  We are motor sailing  I am anxious to see Treasure Cay after Dorian. For some reason, we don’t hear much about the progression from there like the other Cays. I am particularly interested since my sister and her husband plus friends Kim and Don rented a cute condo years ago when we first started sailing. I am anxious to see if they rebuilt them. Also, they have one of the most beautiful beaches.  10:20am-  Arrived at Treasure Cay. Already we see a difference in what used to be and the entrance has changed.  We didn’t waste time to go walk the beach. The marina was totally gone. No more bar, music, pool or dancing.   We also noticed the condo where my sister stayed was totally gone and the condos where our friend stayed wa...

April 27 - May 2, 2022- Haul-out time

Image
April 27 - 29, 2022 7:00am- Before our coffee, we said goodbye to Sue and Gunter as they leave for Jacksonville to haul out their boat there. It felt very surreal.  Now the work begins. First called our landscaper back home because apparently our lawn needs cutting.  After breakfast, we took an Uber to pick up our truck which was in storage. After removing the cover, we knew she needed a good wash.  We then went to Storage King USA to reserve a climate control storage unit. According to Riverside Marina, they will not be able to haul us out until next week.  April 27-29,  2022 Our new hats which we got at the Fort Pierce City Marina.  Things we have done so far to start putting the boat away  -Steve filled the boat up with fuel and emptied the Jerry can in order to store them in the storage bin  -We brought the kayak and a few fenders also to storage along with other things which we will no longer need such as life jackets.  -Steve thoroughly...

December 31, 2021 -Happy New Year.

December 31, 2021  Happy New Year to all my blogger readers.  4:00am- We are off to West End in the Bahamas. It is approximately 55 miles. It should take about 10 hours to get there depending on the wind.  This is a night photo of Gunter and Sue following us in the Gulf  stream as we were leaving West Palm.  My adrenaline goes up just as we are hoisting the anchor in the middle of the night. I get so excited when we leave in the dark with all the stars gazing down at us. It is also very disorienting and the depth perception  is deceiving. You have to take your time and have someone looking out at all times.   4:15am- Sun Spirit is staying close behind us since their running lights are not working. Something Gunter will have to check in the Bahamas.  7:00am- As we see light appearing, we noticed we do not see any land and that there is no cellular service. Now we wait to connect to a Bahamian cellular.    We purchased a phone chip for the...
