CHECKING IN

Just checking in after being away for 10 days.....trying to ease into this "re-entry" gig very slowly so as not to throw my brain into a tailspin.

Vacations are fun.  No kidding.  Of course the prep before you leave can be a little daunting but then when you see this view it is all worth it.

Not to go on and on about it because I realize most of you will loose interest pretty fast....just a few facts about how this trip plays out.

We have actually done this 10 times in the last 20 years.  We started on a monohull  and switched to the 50 ft catamaran after we realized there was more room.  For partying.  Just saying.

The first time we sailed the BVI..... then decided to try the Greek Islands.  Bad move.....long sails, colder water and sea sickness.  

Switched back to BVI.  Then we tried the Grenadines.  Another bad move...long sails and so hot your skin melted.

Switched back to the BVI.....short sails.....great weather.

We charter through Voyage Charters .  The boats are updated and really nice.  We also get a cook and a captain.....I mean is it a vacation if you have to cook?  NO.

It is one of the most relaxing vacations you can take.  No TV....very little internet....and a lot of just hanging out.  

Water so blue you die.

Other pretty boats to look at....

Rainbows...

Incredible food....eggs benedict for breakfast.  She even baked fresh bread everyday.  

My butt got bigger.

Fresh lobster from Anegada.

Eating dinner every night under the stars....playing Uno, laughing so very hard....and imagine this...conversation!

It is a great way to check out for a week.

OK.....back to reality.  I am glad that my ORC reveal posted but not without a little tweaking.  When I set it up I forgot to push publish which is why it didn't show up at 9:00 AM like I thought it would.  Thankfully we had an IT guy aboard who got me some internet so I could figure out what the crap happened.  Of course after I tinkered with it  my friend told me she got it 3x's.  

Sorry if that happened to anyone else.

Thanks for all the wonderful feedback on my guest room.  I am so glad I decided to do my own space and pleased with how it turned out.....now let's just see if I can leave the sucker alone.

Right?

Right.

Everyone did such a great job and I hope you all enjoyed their reveals.  Linda does such a good job putting it together and keeping us moving forward.

I will try to do a post on all of the resources and why I made the decisions I did soon....now I am up to my boobs in laundry.

Have a peaceful Saturday my friends....
