Sunshine Makes It All Happen!
Those of you who know us know that usually you will find us hiding from the sun as much as possible, but we make our boat do the exact opposite. We are all about solar energy. It is amazing what the sun can do! Because of the sun we can have power…lots of power especially … Continue reading
Work and Play, The Days Blend Together
Hello there again. Been meaning to get on here and write for a while but the days all seem to blend together with a mixture of work and play. Sometimes at the end of the day I wonder where the time went then I think of what we’ve done and it all makes sense. Brian … Continue reading
“Wherever A Beautiful Soul Has Been There Is A Trail Of Beautiful Memories.” Author Unknown
Three years ago today my Mom left this world. It was the hardest thing ever. A day does not go by that I do not think about her. I know that she would have it no other way than to remember all of the fun times that we had together. I wanted to share her … Continue reading
Tropical Storm Karen
Karen has come and gone and thankfully was not that big of a deal. We had winds of 35 and gusts up to around 50. There were winds and storms through out the day but the biggest part of the storm blew through around 1am Wednesday morning, not much sleep that night. Storms in my … Continue reading
Never Ending Storms, Work and Solar Oven Baked Bread!
Last we left Brian was working on binnacle repairs which I thought were close to being completed. Boy, was I wrong!

And the Rockets Red Glare – The Space Coast
Mission accomplished! We got to see a couple of rocket launches from the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station while we were visiting Brian’s dad. We were able to view them from Charlie’s front yard. The first launch was the Falcon 9 rocket. It launched the Amos 17 communications satellite an advanced communications satellite owned by … Continue reading
And So Another Journey Begins
Another summer has passed by in a blur of tourists, sea creatures and the general ramblings of our everyday life of working at the AAS marina. This year was shorter than most, we were only home for around 120 days. Our favorite part of course was hanging out with our roomie, our daughter Rachel. This … Continue reading
It’s That Time Again!
Hello again. We’ve been busy bees as most of our friends and family already know. We had our final days in Culebra and have put Moon away for the summer season. It’s always a bit sad leaving Moon behind and checking into the real world…the one of work and responsibility. But it is … Continue reading
