| 25th October 2009 I Wanda | Falll colors - From: On the Move I too love fall. So many fols are sad this time of year with the fading light but for some reason I LOVE IT. I think because I was raised in the Midwest (Central flyway) and it was hunting and Halloween and candy and honking overhead... I didn't see fall FOLIAGE until we moved to BOSTON and we were hooked. Lived 17 yewars in wonderful northern NY. Only bad thing was the fall didn't last LONG enough. Now mind you... I am prtetty fond of SPRING too after 6 months of winter!!! The Bahamas don't reallhy get spring, do they?? |
| 25th October 2009 Pam L. | Fall is Fun - From: On the Move Hi I Wanda, Great to hear your traveling news and the pictures are superb. We took two short fall trips and enjoyed being on the go. It is peak fall colors on the hill across from us and all around in the valleys and hills. Yea, fall! |
| 11th September 2009 Allyn Brosz & Jill Burns | Thanks for the pictures! - From: Leaving Maine Christian & Mary. Thanks for another set of wonderful photographs. Good sailing on your trip south. Jill isn't quite up to traveling long distances yet, so we won't be on Martha's Vineyard before early October, if then. However, we hope to touch base with you in Annapolis. |

| 18th August 2009 jeanne | Penobscot bay - From: Penobscot Bay Loved your blog on the Bay. I have a few boating friends in the area. One couple, Gene and Kathy, live in Castine and he use to work at the marine school there. Van and I visited them in the house in Maine as well as in Vero Beach. They had a boat named Northern Cross. Have not heard from them in awhile and do not know if they still are boating. The other couple lives in Camden and we had visited with them also. They live within walking distance of the harbor. They have a small lobster boat which he built and the name of it is Spike. He also captains the schooner that takes folks out on a tour of the harbor.Camden is a lovely place. I went there myself one year and stayed above a little bakery run by a religious group. It overlooked the harbor. Friends there are Lynette and Bob Walthers. They had a sailboat named Patience and now have a trawler at their other home in East Palatka on the St John's river. Lovely place there too. Ruth and I stopped there for a short visit on our way south last year. They have lots of orange and grapefruit trees and shared them with us. Has it been very hot in Maine? Very hot here the past few days. Not fun having to work at the carousel in this heat. It was 95 in there yesterday. I have to work there again tonight. Another scorcher today. I prefer the cooler weather. 70 is nice. Ruth and I going to Va at the beginnig of Sept. It is coming soon. Have to pick up my trip tik at AAA today. Babysitting my 5 yr old great grandson this week. He starts kindergarten this year. Another granddaughter had a little boy on Aug 5. Family keeps on growing. Soon we will need a hall for get togethers. Have a great and safe trip south. And stay away from the hurricanes. I heard they are brutal to be in. Love to both Jeanne |

| 25th July 2009 lora swedberg | maine travelogue - From: Summer comes to Maine Mary and Christian - delightful blog! And so happy to hear news of Sherry and Bob on Shamal; we'd lost track of them and are so glad to know they're still out there and enjoying cruising/land. Among other things, we spent a rough and uneasy anchorage with them at Conception Island one time. Please say hi from us. Your pictures are fabulous! Sale worthy. Scott's been enjoying your blogs quite some, and since you've gone to this format, I tag along, but slower than formerly ith the emails. Keep 'em coming! thanks and love Lora |

| 1st July 2009 Jeana Johnson | Thinking of you! - From: It's Always About the Weather Dave and I are watching your trek up the coast. So sorry we missed you when you stopped at Solomons Is. But glad you took the bad weather with you up the coast...(grin). Things are warming up down here in MD. Come back to see us!!! Jeana |
| 22nd June 2009 toby hohenstein | Great to see you! - From: It's Always About the Weather So glad we were able to get together--and that the weather was OK. Can't remember a worse June, and think of you often trying to get East in this stuff. We will probably go from 60's to 90's in one day when summer decides to arrive! Love your blog! Toby and George |
| 12th June 2009 Toby | Wonderful - From: On the Move- NJ & NY Loved your pics of NYC even if the weather hasn't been great. We have had a week of fog and rain, so hope it will improve once you get near us. See you soon! |
| 4th June 2009 Andrea | Cat Crew Update - From: The Carolinas Carter is adapting very well to life in Charleston - he is a funny cat and amuses me to no end. Today he sat on my lap purring (a rare treat) and I got such a kick out of his purr - a weak, raspy purr, like he's not really sure if he wants to show me he's enjoying the affection. |
| 3rd June 2009 john | niiice - From: Maryland Wow what a lovely blog. Almost forgot Anpls area is so lovely. "Some day" I must see some of it from the water. You really do have a talent for lovely commentary. Thanks from my world to yours. XO John |
| 2nd June 2009 Rob & Andi, 'Akka' | Eastern Shore in the fall - From: Maryland If you're still up in the northern Chesapeake this fall, take another trip to the same parts of the Eastern Shore you just visited. At that point, there's not just more geese than cows, there's more geese than air -- the flocks can turn the sky dark when they cruise overhead. Of course, it's pretty loud at night; but it's worth it! From Bocas del Toro, Panama |
| 2nd June 2009 Lauren | CRABS! - From: Maryland Oh, the picture of Aunt Phyllis & Uncle Ralph is worth a MILLION words! Priceless! Thomas Point brings back lots of memories. Loving the blog! xoxoxo |
| 20th May 2009 Jeana Johnson | Solomon's Island stop - From: Virginia Mary and Christian: I'm so sorry to have missed you two when you were in Solomons. I was driving back to MD from TN that day--10 hour drive. I gather that you will return through Solomons soon. Dave and I would love to have you here for dinner and hear all about your season plans. I'll call you. Love this blog site! All the news and pix too! Jeana |

| 12th May 2009 Doug Sandercott | Lookin Good - From: The Carolinas You guys look great back out cruising. You both look very happy, and we are envious that we are home working and you are back out playing. The pictures remind us how nice the waterway can be. Keep it up, Doug and Sharon |
| 11th May 2009 Diane & Alex Ariel III | The FIrst? - From: Easter Sunday in Georgia I can't believe I am the first to comment, just lucky I was on when your e-mail came in. You bring back all kinds of memories, the good and the frustrating, but oh the good!!! I do hope to get out on Ariel this summer, and would love to have I Wanda as an anchor mate. We all do go way back to 1992-93. That seems sooo long ago. Fair winds, and do get on the Crusiheimers and say hi from Ariel III, Love ya, Diane |
