Rob, are the long buildings in your city the Brigade Terraced Houses? I'm looking for barracks for my Fort McHenry and those look promising. I am planning to order goodies to be waiting for us when...

How about oars for the ship's boat? I'll bet Bounty had more oars than rammers.

Darned close on both flags, Vol. Just ditch the diagonal red stripes and you're home!

I was speaking with a Spanish friend of mine today, and he refers to his yacht by the masculine pronoun. When I asked why, he explained that boat in Spanish is masculine.

Dubrovnik is breath-taking! I think about the handful of windows I have struggled with and see that and my hands start to shake.:happy:

Here's a summation of...

We arrived yesterday in northern Florida. It was pea soup fog, so no pictures. Approaching Fernandina Beach in the midst of the fog we heard another boat respond to our fog horn. It was a tour boat!...

Magnificent! I stand in envy of your wardrobe!:happy:

We've spent five days exploring this island and now it's time to go for supplies. Here are some final pictures of the south end.

Theoretically it's warmer than where we came from, but it must be based on averages. Tonight's low is supposed to be around 38 degrees F (3 degrees C). The water temperature is still around 60F...

Friday night Suzanne and I took Grace out the Port Royal inlet south of Beaufort, South Carolina and 20 hours later came in off the ocean at Saint Mary's inlet 120 miles to the south. For most of the...
