The ruminations and misadventures of an old man with too much time on his hands.

Back to Reality

5/18 - The dream ended when we returned to Hodges Creek Sunday afternoon.  It was an incredible journey and truly an opportunity of a lifetime.  I may never get to spend that much time in the Caribbean and see that much territory again but I can guarantee you that I will be back.


I'd like to thank Capt. Richard Stanard for choosing me to accompany him on Lakota for this 900-mile odyssey and for putting up with a  perverse sense of humor which he was clearly unaccustomed to.




















I'd also like to thank fellow traveler, Rick Floyd, for returning that humor in kind and for saving our bacon in the blow off Guadeloupe.  As a fellow Oriental sailor, I look forward to spending more time under sail with Rick in the near future.



And last, but not least, thanks to Lakota for all the good times.
