For one of my homeboys... Wayne Jackson
We came out of the same cotton patch.

Baby Sea Lion Gets Comfortable
Obviously, his parents aren't raising him right.
Humans are dangerous. Where is PETA?

We Bid Adieu
To Memphis and all that goes with it.
Again, we stayed longer than planned, but that's just what we do when we feel like it.
So we say goodbye with a photograph of a beautiful sunset over the Mississippi River; setting on the armpit of the Mid-South, my much maligned and deservedly so, hometown of West Memphis, Arkansas.
Now we're back aboard Istaboa and finishing up the small details in preparation for the start of another trip.
We have a new Granddaughter we've yet to meet. Maddie.
Adios... Adieu?
Later,
Istaboa

- A diver coming today to clean the bottom and replace the zincs.
- tweaking all electronic charts
- polishing a couple hundred gallons of fuel
- provisioning at Carmines for that hard to get stuff
- I'm sure this list could go on and on
We have a new Granddaughter we've yet to meet. Maddie.
Adios... Adieu?
Later,
Istaboa

Today's Pic
is one of the first pics posted on this blog —
While doing this cruising thing, one runs across some very interesting folks.
I took this shot as our friend, Clyde, was departing a little marina in Mississippi, heading south for the Gulf of Mexico, and finally Guatemala.
Both my friend and I expected to see each other again soon, but circumstances tend to be unpredictable.
We never saw Clyde again... kinda sad... kinda not. We kept up via email for a while and he seemed to be making a place for himself and Mia on the Rio Dulche, but the emails stopped and ours were never answered.
Hope he's well.
