Heading for the Cold

What a great stay in Marathon. The people at City Marina were great. Thanks Ann. I have met so many new friends that have became family missing you all already.
We left Marathon on May 11th. Jimmy, Tom, and Blair heading for south gulf cove. Had a great 3 day trip stopping at Marco Island , Naples and Ft Myers. Great time had by all. We hauled Esperanza at America Boat yards its a little more money then the east coast boat yards but it is well protected by a lock in fresh water. Plus its just down the road from Jim. On a air plain home May 21 were Carol was waiting to pick me up. Rain and 43f on Sunday the same Monday. Tuesday woke up with a cold, would take the sweating over the shaking any day.
After 2497 mile's Esperanza needs a rest. and  new bottom paint. Planning to be back in Oct. to continue our travels.

Another Great Day

We had a fabulous day fishing and caught the first Maui Maui fish for Scott's boat, Tasted great when we cooked it last night. We swam at the coral reef and saw things you cannot describe,, you have to see it for real.  My time is getting short and i will be flying back to NFLD in a couple of days.(bummer)Brrrr
 My time here has been great. The weather has been fabulous and the company i met here was the same.I am looking forward to spending a lot more time in the south and hopefully with Scott on Esperanza.
Scott's friend Donnie signing of for now.
