About two months ago we booked a trip for my mom to come down for Christmas. Doing the math we decided we’d be in Mazatlan. Our math was wrong. So instead of sailing up, we rented a car and piled our crap in for the 300 mile roadtrip. And oh … Read More
Sinking Boat
That was the worst night we can remember, though we do tend to have short memories; that’s why we’re still living on a boat. This morning we were running the refrigerator when Ali told me she didn’t think it was working. So we lifted up the engine hatch to have … Read More
