Well, the best laid plans can change, and they have. My wife/partner "Harp" has developed some mechanical problems (health related, physically limiting but not life threatning) that make it necessary that she get off Allymar for a time to heal. We have put Allymar to bed for the winter in WinchesterBay and have changed our plans for the immediate future. I will be hopefully continue the trip to Mexico on a sister boat to Allymar "sv/Vindsang" starting in late September, and she will heal herself and return to working as a Nurse Practitioner.
Not the schedule we planned, but the best for the short term. I will be able to scope out the Mexico scene and have greater sailing skills prior to our re-starting the trip next year. She will have had the time to sail without further injury and aggravation. Traveling without her will be carrying around a big hole where she should be and I will miss her a lot. I appreciate her openness in giving me the opportunity to continue without her for a while.
I expect to return to the states (hopefully with a democratic president) in mid Janaury 2009. If McCain wins, there might not be a reason to return except to gather up Harp and go. I sure hope the electorate has the intelligence to see the republicans for what they are, and choose another path for this country besides one of invasion, loss of personal liberties and sell out to the rich.
See you all down the waves.
Ken
