No photo here…just an announcement for our family, friends and blog followers


Though our passage from Charleston, SC to Jacksonville Beach, FL was gentle (compared to most) Mark did not fare well due to his muscle disorder.  Once we were safely at Beach Marina in Jacksonville Beach we had a long talk and came to a different decision.  We are hanging up our topsiders and selling Silhouette.


We planned when we left Dallas that we would go cruising for 5 to 10 years.  Believe it or not we just celebrated our 5th cruising anniversary on March 9 of this year.

But we got to go.  We made new friends, got to go all the way to Grenada, spend 3 winters in Virgins and saw many, many other places as well during our travels.


What is next?  We think (as of today) that we are going to re-settle in Dallas. That is as much as we have planned so far.

A bittersweet choice, I am sure, but we all deal with the cards we are dealt. You are to be commended for (1) knowing when to go and (2) having the courage and wisdom to return when the circumstances required. My memories of my Atlantic crossing are still strong. I would love to pick your brains about stops in the Caribbean. I would also like to invite you to join us on Shenanigans for transits and visits as we cruise over the next few years. Seriously!
