Stuart, FL to Marathon, FL: 11/29/11 – 01/04/12
Happy New Year! We arrived in Marathon and are settled in our slip at Sombrero Marina. Our stay in Stuart was very nice; Sunset Bay Marina remains a favorite. The day after we arrived, we rented a car and drove up to Orlando to pick up our car (and all the craft show supplies) which [Read More...]
Morehead City, NC to Stuart, FL: 11/08/11 – 11/29/11
Our stay in Morehead City was completed with a very nice dinner out at Picatta’s Fine Dining.

Now where were we? That’s right, I was leaving the boat to head off to Annapolis by car to have a small hernia repaired and then be back on my feet in no time. Well, it wasn’t so small and “no time” translated into six weeks of light duty. First things first. We turned the [Read More...]
Waterford, NY to Haverstraw Bay, NY: 08/20/11 – 08/31/11

Anyway, we’re in Half Moon Bay Marina on Haverstraw Bay for the second time on our cruise back to the Chesapeake. We left Waterford after the rains eased and worked our way south through the last lock [Read More...]
