We have been staying at Harbortown Marina in Fort Pierce, Florida for the last six weeks. Our plans were to be here for a month but plans are made to be changed.

As snow is falling in my home state of Maine, I am sitting on the boat basking in the sun in Florida. OK, it really was sunny today but the temperatures were a little too cool to do much basking.

It’s been quite a while since my last post. It wasn’t because I didn’t want to post or didn’t have anything to write about but rather it turned out to be an incredibly busy time in my life. Sometimes life changes in almost a blink of an eye.

It all started last winter while we . . . → Read More: Life Changes…

If you do any boating in the Florida area, you are bound to see this sign (or one similar to it). Because until recently, I had never seen a manatee, I decided to do some research to find out more about them and share it with all of you.

It’s a pretty sweet looking boat—click on the boat name above and . . . → Read More: Having a great time…

If you’ve come in search of me, I can be found down by the sea. Feet in the sand, wind in my hair, the Sea and Me, an inseparable pair.

We are packed (well almost) and ready to leave the snow, ice and mud for a month vacation. Whooo-Hoooo!! We are leaving for Florida tomorrow . . . → Read More: Road Trip – Off We Go!
