I continue to work weekends at Hospice of the Western Reserve practicing appropriate precautions and have the PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) that I need. We take it very […]

We bought a house and are living the “off to work” lifestyle. We love Changes but it is time to move on to our next adventure. Be sure to read Lorraine’s post attached after the photos. For more info call me at 440 231 0089. I bought SV Changes new in 1979 and she has […]
Sunday March 8, 2015 Miles Traveled: 50.6 nm We pulled the anchor at 6:12AM and motored out of the harbor at Ensenada Vieques. Our friends Bob and Jeanne on Walkabout left 10 minutes after us. The wind was very light so we kept motoring toward the SE point of Puerto Rico in 6 foot swells. […]
Sunday, December 7 Last night I had my first good night sleep and woke at 515am. I took advantage of the quiet time and wrote yesterday’s post. We were up for the cruisers’s net, but being Sunday, there wasn’t one. At least my alarm is set so we won’t miss it tomorrow. Phil replaced the […]

Friday November 14 I got up at 6:30AM and the day started off not so good. I ran out of propane, so no early morning coffee. Bummer! I had cereal for breakfast then got organized to paint the bottom. First I masked off the waterline. This required moving a short stand around the boat so […]
Tuesday November 11 Happy Birthday Me It’s getting old, this working on the bottom and the post in mostly about other things. This morning I noticed new scaffolding next to Changes. This was for Uncle Sam to start cleaning up the boat. After cereal for breakfast, Sam showed up and started to clean the deck […]
Sunday Sunday was a no working on the bottom day, read not getting dirty. When sanding the bottom with 80 grit sand paper the red dust fills the air. A respirator is a must and your arms and clothing get covered with the red dust from the red old bottom paint. I use mechanic gloves […]
Friday, Nov 7, 2014 I woke up to a nice cool morning. Temp in low 80s. I was hungry so it was off to Zanzabar the local restaurant here at Peakes. I had eggs over easy and pancakes. The eggs were overdone as usual. It seem not many cooks know how to do over easy. […]
Wed, November 5, 2014 I arrived in Trinidad yesterday at 9PM, made it through Customs without any problem and was picked up by Mike Corbett at the airport. He then took me to Jean and Mike’s boat SV Tomorrow’s Dawn to stay for the night. This was very much appreciate and very generous of them […]
