Linda/Cold, grey skies, drizzle
Well, it's been a crazy week with us doing triple duty prepping Ruby Slipper to head south, getting our home ready for our friends who will be house sitting AND prepping for Hurricane Sandy! Thanks to Bill, shuttling back & forth several times a day, our home afloat fared very nicely. And, that's a good thing as the boat is fully loaded!! Food, adult beverages, spare parts, charts, warm clothes for the 4-week passage down to Florida & attire for sunnier weather. The dogs' gear takes up a full locker!! EVERYONE on Ruby Slipper should enjoy this adventure!

We'll be posting when things get interesting...or I get bored. But DO keep us apprised of YOUR adventures so we won't feel so homesick.
