Lots MORE driving yesterday. Nearly 2000 miles in two days. I think I’ve said it before but I LOVE THE WEST!! The mountains are so fabulous!! I also love the 80mph speed limit in southwest Texas. SWEET! These photos are of San Antonio, TX, El Paso, TX, and a gob of mountains and terrain in… [Read More]
Tampa to Houston
Lots of driving yesterday – Tampa, FL to Houston, TX. I am absolutely in love with this country (The United States) – it is SOOO gorgeous and so varied. The west holds a very firm grasp on my heart but I sure love seeing all the variety from time to time. The following photos are… [Read More]
Sold
Well… waddya know… I’ve been praying for some clear direction for my life and I seem to have gotten it. I put my sailboat up for sale and it sold. Wham! Just like that. So, I packed up my things, loaded them in my car, and am on my way home. I feel a loss…. [Read More]
V Day
Valentines Day is not my most favorite day. Sorry…
Not Here
My life is strange. It seems that I always want to be “somewhere else” and want to be doing “something else”. Living on the boat is very cool but I can’t stop the ‘somewhere else/something else’ feelings. Perhaps it is just finances. I am finding owning a house and a boat and trying to make… [Read More]

Away
I had a couple days off the boat – felt kinda strange. I made the three hour drive to Tampa, FL (Trinity, actually) to visit a niece and her family. I’ve only been living aboard for a couple weeks but the feeling is still noticeable. I had a wonderful time and enjoyed all the SPACE. I think… [Read More]
Toe Rail Continued
I mentioned my toe rail here a couple days ago and then posted a question on the SailNet forums. The question was: Should the area between the toe rail and hull be sealed or treated in any way? I asked as the previous owner of my boat had sealed this will clear silicone. Silicone is… [Read More]
15 Minutes
Sam, my dock mate, says “Fifteen minutes per day of maintenance, that’s all you need to do”. I feel like my boat could use several hours per day for several months! 🙁 The toe rail on the port side came off today. Yes, I definitely like the new look better. I saw the garbage trunk… [Read More]
Cleaning
I spent some time doing more much needed cleaning of my Hunter this weekend. The fiberglass hull was oxidized and chalky. I tried a quick scrubbing with Starbrite boat wash & wax. It wasn’t enough. I tried a bit more aggressive approach using vinegar and scrubbing compound followed by another was with the Starbrite. This… [Read More]
