2024-Oct-21 – Monday – Clarke’s Court, Grenada
Hot and humid, but the rain generally holds off although looks ominous at times. Big day today, as we get entry to Milu and see what’s what. Number one job is to get the dinghy into the water since we hope to check out of Izzy’s tomorrow and use the dinghy to go back and…

2024-Oct-20 – Sunday – Izzy’s Apartments, Grenada
We’re both up pretty early, we both do our exercises then wash off the sweat and I have a much-need shave. After oatmeal breakfast and coffee/tea we walk down to Clarke’s Court – normally about 20 minutes but a bit longer as we had to dash for rain cover. We take the big bag on…

2024-Oct 19 – Toronto to Grenada
Well here we go again … back to get Milu back in the water and start our next round of adventures. First, gotta get there. A bit of drama at the cottage when, on the moment of departure for Toronto, Christy can’t find her passport. We search and search, find nothing, she calls the Passport…

Summer and Fall 2024
Egads, time goes by fast. Seems we just flew back from Grenada and here I sit at Izzy’s in Grenada, October 19, 2024 after just landing. The summer of 2024 was pretty excellent although there were not a ton of adventures. Spoiler alert. Things started slowly as, once back in Canada, I confirmed my foot…

Jan 6, 2024 Petite Martinique
Another beautiful day, a Saturday. That is going to be an important factor in the mood of some people. As usual, Christy and I are up and moving before the kids arise. We head out for the one hour motor sail to Union Island where we will check in to St. Vincent and the Grenadines…

April 27th, 2024, Grenada to Canada
Hot, sunny, not enough time to take pictures. Despite exhaustion I didn’t sleep that well, turns out Christy didn’t either. Still that stationery full bed with clean sheets felt pretty good. I make some (pretty lousy) coffee and we clean up all our excess food. Christy has planned our provisioning down to the peanut –…

April 26th, 2024, Woburn Bay, Grenada
Hot, sunny, some merciful clouds in the late morning. Both Christy and I are up and working at the crack of dawn. We have a lot to do before we haul out at 1 pm today. First up is the engine off the dinghy. This 20 hp Honda is a bit of a beast but…

April 25th, 2024, Woburn Bay, Grenada
Sunny, hot. Getting down to crunch time. We haul out at 1:00 pm tomorrow so lots to do before that. We are going to park overnight on the docks at Clarke’s (one night included in haulout/launch) and there is even work to do getting ready for that. Rental car is coming at 1 pm so…

April 24th, 2024, Woburn Bay, Grenada
Hot, sunny. I’ve had enough of this pain in my foot and no longer think it is related to gout. Gout is nothing like this and usually clears up in a few days of being a good boy. I have been a friggin’ angel and it is only getting worse. We’re renting a car tomorrow…

April 23rd, 2024, Woburn Bay, Grenada
Hot, sunny. I say hot and sunny every day and it is, but more often than not rain falls in short spurts some time during the day so you have to be careful with that. Also get some great cloud formations, this one in the evening. Every day this week is filled with work getting…
