Hermitage – Costa Rica – [01/08/2014]
It occurred to me today that I have perhaps fifteen books in my cabin…some half-read and partially abandoned (though never totally), some not even touched, at least two or three that are brand new. Plus my audiobooks…we won’t go into … Continue reading

The internet is the one thing created by humanity that humanity does not understand – Criminal Minds I am starting to believe that every time you buy a new electronic device, it should come with a mandatory registration in a … Continue reading
Further Donations to the Blood Bank – At Sea – [01/05/2014]

New Year’s Day has come in like a Lion, and 2013 definitely did not go out like a lamb, at least not out here. The seas were rough enough last night (and still are this morning) that everything in the … Continue reading
Postcards from the Edge – At Sea – [12/31/2013]
Over the years, New Year’s Eve has been a great many things to me. When I was a child, and actually well into when I was a young adult, New Year’s Eve was a working night. I grew up the … Continue reading
