The sun has finally decided to shine on a regular basis and I have decided to fire up the old blog. I really have missed communicating with you all (sounds kinda like Texas) y’all.

A lot has happened since my last report, nothing earth shattering), but nun the less interesting. I am getting settled into the small community of Walnut Grove. It normally takes someone a lifetime to become known, but because I’m a sailboat in a world of Power Boats and because I’m old and doing something only younger men should be doing, I kind of stand out. I still can’t figure out how to catch fish yet, but I will include pictures when I do. Just before I eat them of course.

My brothers John and Darryl have been a great help in my getting on my feet. John lives no more than a mile away and Darryl about 15 miles away. Since I live so close to John, I have prevailed upon him often, so much so that he has bought property in Nevada City and will be moving away.
