Well, finally. We're back on the water with our faithful ship. Preparing for our voyage down the east coast, making huge Wal-mart and Sams club shopping runs every day, running around in circles, yes, it seems like the start of another great year aboard the Rio Dulce. As we're pulling stuff out from under the beds that we don't remember buying, we find empty duffel bags that we were looking for 2 years ago. Jeez. I really didn't know we had this much junk on this boat. I didn't even know this much junk could fit onto this boat. Oh well, there goes that rain jacket from the first voyage. just another brick in the wall, or, just another coat in the trash. At least we've got a great marina to stay for the time being. The only down side is that here in the palmetto state there are plenty of palmetto bugs. Brian can't stand it. AnnMaries hair is getting longer by the minute, and Brady is catching geckos all over the place. Can't wait to get back to the good ol' Atlantic again. once again, we have no plans for visitors. so if you want to get away for a little, just call the Rio Crew.
