I started these pages sometime around 2012 after I became a happy landlubber. I am adding more recollections and more photos as I find them, so come back often to see what else is new. (Comments on the contact form always welcome!)
Here are some of my remembrances of things past as I recall them, for the amusement of my grandchildren Edward, Alice and Ben, also Stephanie and Abigail, and for all my family and friends. 
I hope you enjoy them.

This is me up the Macareo River, Venezuela, cutting weed from around the anchor chain in October 1999.

 Some apt quotes:                                     
"Like as the waves make toward the pebbled shore So do our minutes hasten to their end." - Wm. Shakespeare, Sonnet LX
 "My way of life Is fall'n into the sere, the yellow leaf" - Wm. Shakespeare, Macbeth
"My candle burns at both ends; It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends, It gives a lovely light!" - Edna St.Vincent Millay
