Sailing Simple Life: Back in the USA
http://sailingsimplelife.blogspot.com/2016/05/back-in-usa.html
Sunday, May 1, 2016. Back in the USA. Our Bahamas departure across the Little. Bahama Bank was smooth as glass. Sunset on the Little Bahama Banks. Leaving the Bahamas is always an emotional time for me and for Joe. There are no bogos in the Bahamas. There are even fewer markets. I bought cheesecake for Joe. I'd forgotten about that, too. There was an aisle with two for ones! Let's not forget the charms of TJMaxx. I stopped there, too. The stores are in the same plaza. Bought myself a new line...Vero Beac...

Wednesday, May 20, 2015. Journeying North to Chesapeake Bay. Simple Life underway on the ICW. Photo by Tricia Wehmer. One of the FAQ's from our blog followers has been, "How do you guys manage to continue this migration year after year? We sail offshore along the Atlantic seaboard whenever weather and seas cooperate which is also exhausting and not always feasible. This season Tropical Storm Ana.

Sailing Simple Life: February 2016
http://sailingsimplelife.blogspot.com/2016_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 19, 2016. In the shadow of the Hopetown Lighthouse. Hopetown harbor from atop the Hopetown Lighthouse. It means dishes washed once a day, shower in a gallon of water twice a week. I don't mean to sound righteous, but out here water is expensive not wasted. We have no choice since we don't live at marinas. Ruins at the now closed Elbow Cay Club. Their stories are so interesting and we have dubbed them the social directors of the "harbor rats" (those of us living on moorings in Hopetown).

Sailing Simple Life: December 2015
http://sailingsimplelife.blogspot.com/2015_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 24, 2015. A Simple Life Christmas in Vero Beach. A view of Simple Life's. At the navigation station. And it allows us to "see" them on a laptop and identify their vessel as well. Joe and I sail offshore as often as possible when weather cooperates. Every time we're offshore during overnight passages it seems ships come out of nowhere. That's when it becomes stressful. It seems we never spot a ship during daylight. Curses! Fast forward to sailing Simple Life. Electrical system torn apar...

Sailing Simple Life: April 2015
http://sailingsimplelife.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 20, 2015. Joe takes a closer look at an approaching. Squall line on the horizon. Reflections of the Hopetown Lighthouse. Hopetown became our base of operations in the Abacos with a two week stay on a mooring. The pristine beach was delightful for a walk and swim with only a few tourists speckling the area in front of the resort leaving the remainder of the beach relatively secluded. The resort was actually a pleasant stop for a Kalik before heading back to the Simple Life. A couple of highl...

Sunday, April 10, 2016. The sign in the settlement. It seems just when all ducks are in a row and it's time for take off across the Gulf Stream something goes awry. In the saga of the Simple Life. It's an issue with the alternator not charging the batteries. Navigation station with computer, VHF radio,. SSB radio, Furono chartplotter/radar, control panel. This is all the electronic equipment we won't be using. Joe doing his homework. Remember this antique GPS? Works and the plan is to use it. An antique ...

Sailing Simple Life: November 2015
http://sailingsimplelife.blogspot.com/2015_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 22, 2015. Captivated by Charleston again. Dawn in Charleston Harbor. This blog backtracks a few ports since we have already arrived safely in Vero Beach, Florida, but our stay in Charleston was as always interesting and noteworthy. I thought you might enjoy reading this latest entry. Have you experienced a city that seems to emanate a radiance while whispering a certain je ne sais quoi. Bluegrass musicians entertaining at the farmers market. The Emanuel African Methodist. Where on June 1...
