Marlene A. Sassaman's Comments

Am in South West Ireland. Have managed to get a bit of sailing experience in other parts of the world over the last 2 years. Caribbean Is in 2010, Southern Spain from Fuengirola to Alicante a few weeks ago and have a trip planned for Greece in Oct from Athens up to Corfu. Will head away for a few days this month in my own boat and for a couple of weeks in early September. Have not solo sailed yet (except for a quick trip out in the bay a few years ago ..no wind ..so will not count that!) but am ever so slowly gearing myself in that direction. My preference is to sail with other sailors but its difficult to organise it. Think the old saying is the wisest ...make friends with sailors rather than trying to make sailors out of friends! Cheers. Kate

Just read your profile ...you have very exciting plans ....go for it!! Am a couple of years behind you but looking to see a bit of the world too. The best has yet to come!

Best of luck with your new boat and safe sailing!

Marlene, Marlene.... I would love to do some sailing with you. did you see my blog about last sail from Bahamas to Ft Lauderdale ? What are you thinking about boatwise for the next journey ? love ya Suky

I had to put the picture onto a word document. Maybe that is the problem. It is weird how my computer has some pictures stored in a program that I can't seem to figure out.

all i see is a red x in your message box below...also I don't see a sunrise picture on your photo page.
Put it on your photo page and then let me know on my page.

Thanks

Lola I think the pix is here; at least a bunch of jibberish appeared after I clicked the camera, then browsed til I found the pix I wanted to enter. It's a sunrise coming into Ft. Pierce heading north on the ICW.
