SLEPT LIKE TWO VERY CONTENT SAILORS

We are checked in and have confirmed that the weather is good right through the weenend.  Will spend the day making water, polishing the "diesel",  hopefully re provision with fresh things in the little town here.  Might even talk my self into doing some laundry..........I do have a good book that is calling me...............begining to  relax as you can see.  Still some chores that have to get done first though.   We run a clean Ship...........LOL  Had a great supper last night of filet minion and are reenerized after a few days of passage.  We were  out  of shape and needed to reconnect with our boat and all that goes with sailing.  Starting to feel good again.  LOL  Just like riding a bike LOL The sun is shining and we are getting accustomed to the breezed that kickup during the day here in this part of the Pacific....not too intense but does twirl us around our anchor.   It calms down in the after...

SAILORS SLOWLY SETTLING IN

Thanks to our lovely friend and landlord, Colette I and the folks from S/V Saucy Lady drove to San Salvador yesterday for provisions.  First on the list was to reactivate the computer........all went well with Clario, one of the companies  that provide the internet here in El Salvador.  Such great customer servise for us Gringos who still have very poor  Spanish.  It was so busy in the city I had forgotten!!!  Got home without any problems and now have good things to eat.  It was such a bonus to come home to a running fridge and The Captain.  He has been working so hard getting al these things working.  Lots of items on his list after leaving the boat for the past six months.  We are a good team!!!

November 01.12 Good morning and happy November.  Still raining out my front door here in #2 Cottage at Kye Bay Resort.........the most beautiful spot on the east coast of Vancouver Island.  www.kyebay.com The Captain is counting the "get ups" left in Boston Bar.   Joey is checking out the available couches as he prepares to serf for the winter. Lovely Jane and Faithful Fred are his Kye Bay Winter family but you that know Joey gotta know he makes the rounds.  More on that as the season progresses.  and I am working through  my list of things to get, buy, fix and pack in between the side affects of those darn Typhoid pills we are taking.  Tomorrow is the last day of the procedure. (four pills with a skipped day in between the taking.)  Usually get a shot but they did NOT have any so we went for the oral meds.  http://www.viha.ca/contact_us/     Here is the link for those of you who need more i...

SAILORS STARTING TO MAKE DEPARTURE PLANS

The list of wishes is out on the desk, with Google search results listed as we begin the month of preparations to return to our beloved White Shell.  This list is actually rather short, which is a good thing. LOL  Begining the fourth season of our Cruising life  we are encouraged with that;life is very simple for The Captain and I.  The joy is that each season brings us even closer to this simplified life we now crave.  Purchasing the Hurrican 'THORE' motor home was/is brilliant!!!!  We now have our own Canadian Home and storage place for our personal belongings for the sailing season.  All for very little money and tons of comfort and enjoyment.  (The Captain says he is very comfortable as we speak as he lives in it and works in Boston Bar....I am off to visit him next shift change so will report back.) The list?   I will publish that later as I must sign off for today and join my good friend Lillian -Joeys great aunt...........off to...
