From the log

We are taking a little intermission and heading back to the U.S. for a few days. We`ll feel like fish out of water since we`ve been gone 6 months. How about driving on the right side, fast food, and television! Then we catch a flight to Argentina and Uruguay where we are participating in the Brotherhood of the Coast World Zafarancho for two weeks. This is a worldwide sailing fraternity with an international gathering every four years in a different country. So we`ve hauled Liward out of the water in Grenada to get her annual bottom paint job while we are gone. This is a must in the tropics since the marine growth is so bad. She looks like a fish out of water! We`ve been working very hard on the boat doing some projects before we leave. Crusing is not fun 100% of the time! We`ll be back on the boat December 3 and then get ready to head up to the northern Caribbean to visit the islands we missed on the way south.

    Following along from Houston and loving every update. That shot of the anchorage at dawn is going straight on my wall.

    We crossed paths with you in Bocas years ago and have been reading ever since. Fair winds to you both.

    My grandkids and I look up every island you mention on the map. It has turned into our little geography lesson.

    Twenty years of this and still going. You two are the reason we finally put a deposit on a boat of our own.
