Things in the Mississippi sound exciting and scary! Thinking about you a lot. Hope you will take some R&R in the Fort sometime! : ) Call us if you ever get a chance. Miss you tons!

Hi guy's! Glad to see your moving again. Best wishes. Andi/Sheila

Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad! Hope you guys are having a great time. Have a lovely day today and I hope we get to speak to you soon.

Miss and love you both,

Dana, Paul & Elliott xoxoxoxoxox

Hey guys!! It's Friday evening and Tom is off commiserting with fellow AE employees. Me? I'm home with the kids checking out your great photos and blogs. We sure miss you guys. The pics of Dana, Paul & Elliott are great. Elliott sure is a cutie! We were also glad to see he was sporting CSU apparel in a few of the photos. The kids have next week off. Too bad we couldn't hook up with you guys. Have fun sailing!!! Talk to you soon - Sally, Sarah, Nathan & Ryan

Hi guys, I tried to call you the other day to say hi but it sounds like you have been really busy! I'm happy that you have got the sailing bug again! Sounds like you're having a great time. It sometimes helps to take a step back and get a little R&R with your family! We miss you guys so much! I really mean it, Elliott's not been the same since you left! Elliott says, "Bring my grandma & grandpa back or I'm moving to that boat"! I'm really happy working 3 days now and at the new centre! It's a million times better! We're having a little birthday party for Elliott on Saturday. I have invited his little friends Luke, little Elliot and Molly! Plus the parents. Should be a fun time. Wish you guys could be here as well! Paul's parents are coming the weekend after for a visit. I'll be sure to post Elliott's birthday pics and films on facebook for you to enjoy. I love you both and am looking forward to our next visit already! Dana, Paul & Elliott xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Welcome back. Glad to see you're off again. We are in Mobile, AL. The Mississippi Sound is a great area for sailing if you don't have East winds. We ended up anchoring at Dauphin Island- It's well protected from SE winds and there's plenty of room to swing. It's at the mouth of MObile Bay- ANchor before the bridge. We ended up coming into Mobile, AL at Dog River at the Turner Marine Supply Marina. It's 1/2 the price of the other marinas and is really nice- Very nice people, lots of liveaboards and cruisers. We're waiting for a weather window before we cross the Gulf. Maybe we'll see you down the road? So glad to see you continuing your voyage.

The last of the summer wine town is called Holmfirth. Good luck with the sailing...Elliott really misses you both.
