Feb to June 2010

I'm back in Seattle after a great trip on 'Jungle' from San Diego to the Caribbean. Now I have my sights set on bringing 'Desire' from Hawaii back to the Salish Seas.

Lots of hard work to get it together to get her back but I'm up for the challenge. Stay tuned.

I just finished doing my taxes and I was seriously perplexed by one of the e-questions: 'Did the taxpayer have any foreign income in 2009?'

How can I even begin to explain, or even quantify, my 'foreign income received in 2009'? Best estimate (see pic): 3-pompamose, 6-mangos, 5-bananas, 8-chily peppers, 6-lemons/limes, 1-green bunch of something flavorful, 1-bent baguette. Payment received for sailing 3,000 open ocean miles and several hours teaching conversational English to a group of Marquesans.

Lord Byron

There is a pleasure in the pathless woods;
There is a rapture on the lonely shore;
There is society, where none intrudes;
By the deep sea and music in its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more...
~ Lord Byron
