H-Season Spoiler Alert Teaser Take Two
23 April 2016
These are the facts as we've revealed them in the last two Spoiler Alerts, and as you, dear readers and friends, now know them. After four years in the Caribbean, we're driving to do something different this H-season. Due to some recent Divine Signs, we'd been presented with an idea that has, with A Plan, turned our Dreams into Dates.

Returning to Grenada after our quick visit home last fall had us dealing with one question, and one question only.
"What are we up to this year?"
It sure didn't help that everyone else, as is customary when the Cruising Season is about to start, were also asking us:
"What are you up to this year?"
And as we sat back, rum punch in hand, and chit-chatted the Happy Hours away, we still didn't have the answer to the question:
"What are we up to?"
As we Hashed (or perhaps Hallucinated) in the hot humid heat that is Grenada, we were well aware that the Dream was just sitting there, somewhere in the backs of our minds, humming and whispering sweet notes of Adventurings in our ears.
There was a reality to face, though, and that was that Banyan was in need of some major attention. Our low Canadian Dollar was killing our BOAT (Break Out Another Thousand) Job Funds,
"Not to mention our Fun !!" we grumbled.
Yet, with each new Google Search, a solution to our work related issues seemed to materialize our of nowhere aided by this Dream we were dreaming.
Except for one iddy biddy problem. This was going to be an all or nothing type of deal. In order to make this happen, being in Grenada and all, we would have to go way out on a limb. Do something almost unheard of. Something a little crazy and a little wild.
And if we did do something unheard of, something a little crazy and something a little wild, we'd have to do it quick. We'd have some deadlines to respect, some hasty decisions to make, and live with the respective ensuing results.
"Should we?" was quick answered by "We could?"
"Could we?" was quickly answered by "We would".
"What if" was quickly answered by "Why not?"
And so we... DID !!
Once the signatures were affixed on X marks the spot, we now had ourselves a Dream turned Real. Banyan's bow was shifted towards our Date, and with winds in our sails we hoisted ourselves a Plan.
The plan was to take Banyan North to her H-Season home in Florida. And for those of you that follow us on FB, you would know we're now (almost) there.
Banyan is scheduled to haul out May 12th. Airline tickets have been purchased for a May 14th. And the big reveal is happening on May 16th.
These, dear Readers and Friends, are the Dates our Dreams are made of.
