I haven’t posted, because I’ve really been enjoying my family and friends, while winding down and making sure everything is set for my return to GiGi

My family and most of my friends love RV camping. It turned out that some friends had planned a camping weekend at my favorite beach. So I was able to visit with all of them in one location.

Trying to adjust to the 3 hour time change is rough. I’m awake at 4:15 am and can’t go back to sleep. We are having the family over for a BBQ tonight. Jenna, my oldest daughter and I prepared for that, and went to town for lunch. The whole family came out and we enjoyedContinue reading “Day 2 at home”

I have so enjoyed visiting with my family and close friends. My youngest daughter Jordin and I went to my favorite California beach (Avila) for lunch. When I was packing for this trip, I realized, the only clothes I have are what I would need on a yacht. Not one pair of jeans or appropriateContinue reading “Day one at home”

I’ve been on this boat long enough to have my own maintenance log schedule. Some things need to be done daily something’s weekly and something’s every three months…

I moved from crew quarters to one of the guest rooms, per bosses orders. The guest room has a sunroof so I can look at the beautiful moon and stars. I woke up at 6:30am. So dark outside. All of a sudden a bright star appears. I thought, what the heck is that?

Got up my first morning here. So quiet. Had my coffee. Then gave GiGi a good washing. She had a hard 3 days. By the time I finished around 2:30, I took a walk around this cute little village. Families at the pool, cornhole getting played, a family sitting in the clubhouse screened porch playingContinue reading “I feel like I’m on vacation camping”
