Before Christmas, while Gerry and I were in CT, we went to the Mystic Seaport to experience the Lantern Light Tour and had our picture taken with Santa! We were back in Florida on Dec 21 and closed on our new house in Punta Gorda on Monday, December 22! Yes, I said closed on a new house! We had been looking in various parts of Florida, but decided that Punta Gorda Isles had everything we were looking for! An on-the-water location with easy access to the open ocean, close to

After the Thanksgiving weekend craziness, we headed back to Florida on Wednesday, December 3. We flew to Fort Myers and stayed in our condo.

The original intention was to do a one shot run of about 1,400 miles from Curaçao to Palm Beach, going around the East side of the Bahamas. But halfway between Curaçao a

I had to go back to CT to help out my old employer so Gerry and our friend Neil Sharp took off from Norfolk, VA on 10/6 and headed to Belhaven, NC with a great weather window. Along the way, they traveled through the Great Bridge Lock, which Neil thought was pretty cool. They enjoyed a great dinner at https://spoonrivernc.com/. Neil works in the restaurant industry, and the owner remembered Gerry from our trip last fall. She gave them a tour of the back of the restaurant an
