Well, we put Jim in a taxi on March 22. He didn't come back like he did last year. We had another wonderful time, even though we were stuck in George Town because of weather. He is a great boat guest!

We have now begun the next adventure. We headed out for points east and south. Weather cooperated and we left the Bahamas and are now in Turks and Caicos. Our next country should be Dominican Republic - within the next week or so.

It was fun in George Town with Texas Hold 'Em Poker, volleyball, cruisers net, and all the friendly people of Great Exuma. There has been more solitude and fewer boaters with which to interact.

We got out and replenished our fish supply with one nice size Mahi and one nice wahoo. While we were in GT, Darrell speared some lion fish and we had some fresh conch. With that many boaters, however, the lobsters were scarce.

Stay tuned for details of Jim's stay. He is going to write it and send it to me for editing again like last year. Unfortunately our stay in Turks and Caicos is short (details in the next update) but onward to more fun adventures.
