I was just in Key West on our 25 Oday and we looked for you on Sunday the 12th. We circled the anchorage looking for Splendid, but did not see her.

Congrats on Marathon. That is my Key of choice too. That was our entry point to the keys after sailing down the west coast of FL. Stop in to visit the people at Burdines. I can heartily recommend them. Also, the cruisers forum is on Channel 68. Tell them you’re a newcomer and they have a gift bag for you.

sorry we missed you. Our rhumb lines will cross again soon.

Best of luck to you.
Ross

I sent out the preserves and syrup on tues. it should be there probably mid week. Will you be going back through there in the next month or so? Those grumpy workers don’t deserve the stuff, especially the the homebrewed mexican cervezas that are in there too!!

Now what?

I may be able to get out one night for dinner if you like. I could have scheduled a few days to see BC but opted not to as I really wanted to get back to my girls and Splendid. I’ll email you my phone number. Please call me between the 1st and 5th of may and we can chat about it once I know more what the job is like.

Cheers.

I know Alex appreciates what i’ve done with his boat, and i appreciate how he’s helped me. our friendship has been quite symbiotic. i too cannot wait to get away for a few weeks, even though it will be back breaking work for three weeks straight.. i too will come back with a few bucks. Alas desperately needs some attention before i go crossing the caribbean with her. i will be taking 5 days to see my family before i return to the world of Alas and Splendid, and hopefully i will feel rested enough to start working hard again for what i want.
thanks again, R.
thyme for more coffee!

I want my own boat so bad I am actually losing sleep over it. In the last six months since discovering your site, I check it every day. I know I have a long couple of years ahead of me saving up $$$, but it helps to have your blogs to read to remind me of why I am eating mac & cheese instead of more expensive meals. Even though I know I will probably lose my girl over this, I’ll be damned if I’m not going to be able to raft up with you somewhere and pop open a bottle and thank you in person for helping to keep me going.
Thanks Alex.
