Christmas 2006


We had a great Christmas with our sons and their ladies and Karen's mom, Dee. The best present of all is to be with family. Hope all of you had wonderful days also.

Holiday Blizzard



The over two feet of snow we received in the last couple of days gave everyone a workout just to get the driveways shoveled. Snowblowers were a blessing.

Sailing the Sea of Cortez








We sailed north from San Carlos to Point Morrow then west across the Sea of Cortez to the town of Santa Rosalia. After a day in Santa Rosalia, we went south to Punta Chivato then on to Bahia Concepcion where we spent several days. Back to Punta Chivato for the trip back across the sea to San Carlos.


We had a great seafood meal at a little restrauant at the Santispac anchorage at the north end of Bahia Concepcion. Went swimming in a cove visited by nudists and took showers (is that Buddha or my Brudda?) on the deck of the boat.

There was some 'relaxing' going on during the trip.






Beautiful sunsets and 'hands-free' sailing added to our experiences.














At the end, OBO (it means Islander in Swedish) is back in San Carlos.
