We’ve decided to try one more trip to the Bahamas … our 7th and probably last. We’ve loved the travel before and feel we have another trip in us, and this time on BenjOllie, a 42′ Grand Banks Trawler. We”ll attempt to keep up the blog for those that want to follow along. The first part of the month was getting us ready — the boat, our old folk medicines, and loading the stuff we’ll need on board.
Finally, on November 19, we are underway, heading south. Peggy Saylor came to cast off our lines at 8:30 AM. We had a false start because I forgot to mail an important document, so we turned around and asked Peggy to be our postman to get the document on its way. By 9 AM, we were on our way to Regatta Point Yachting Center in Deltaville, 70 miles from Colonial Beach. Beautiful waters and a nice cruise. Not much traffic on the water. Had dinner aboard and tomorrow we’re off to Norfolk just ahead of a strong storm expected to last a couple of days. We’ll see what unfolds.

Delighted you are underway. Enjoy!
Wish we would have been there to send you off as well! Lovely to hear about your trip as it unfolds. Miss you, Veronica
I’m so excited for you two. I’m looking forward to read about your adventures. Have fun & safe travels. Phil thanks for the reference to Butterfield Pharmacy. I bought a O2 concentrator from them. $900. What a deal. Love you both. Bonnie
Bonnie,
Yes I saw this comment and glad you got a great deal with Butterfield. I’m still learning how to use a blog with comments so may not have properly told it to display.
Have a great trip! We will follow along on the blog! Stay safe!
Love following you on your trips. Thanks! Safe travels and enjoy. ❤️
Can’t wait to follow your journey.
Enjoy! What a great trip you have ahead of you! Katy and I are envious!! Mike
