Ahh sunny SD

Yea right!! We've bee getting slammed by a band of storm systems that are beating the crap out of the mooring field. Most last night the winds where 15 and from the SE so at least we could sleep. When the winds come from the S or SW it has time to create some nice sized storm waves. We've seen 50 knots a few times this storm that has lasted 3 or 4 days now. Lost of sunken dingys and a few sunken boats. Those boats ha vent seen human life for awhile and that's what happens. As for Libby she's holding up pretty good only spilled one Sailor Jerry so far. I'll have to be more carefull cause theres no way we can get to the dock just yet.

Holding pattern




I've been back for a ....... Hell I don't really know.. maybe I should get a calender. Anyways been back for a weekend or two. Not that makes much of a difference anyway. So I've been just getting a little more in touch with San Diego. Like biking all over the place till your ass is screaming!! Some call it Baboon butt. Hey I like checking out all the old world San Diego and it's worth it. From what I have read this used to be a wild and willey world!! Oh and they thought they cleaned it up !... ha I say.. they should look subculture, there is a lot going on that doesn't meet the eye. Like tonight there's a tsunami coming, that should be fun. Crazy sitting out here knowing there might be a huge wave coming to get ya. No worries though......... I think it's over here anyway..nothing gnarly in the anchorage. Thanks King Neptune !


In other news ....... I'm in a holding pattern. Ya know like "Oh yea we want you to..." Then you give a price and then get the ole..."We want you to...but.." So by the phone I sit. Sheesh, darn duh nar roe.


There's a fun event coming up and I have to sail tomorrow or forget it. So I'm sitting here trying to decide sail or hang for the bucks. Sailing "with" bucks is a lot better, just not looking like it's gonna happen.


Another coin toss, thank goodness it's that easy.


Here's a pic of a crazy ass space ship thing they blew up at burning man. My eyebrow's are just coming back in

Sq. Inch's

As folks that live on small boats know it's not Sq. Ft. It's inch's. I woke this morning feeling kinda cramped up. Looking around I was like humm looks normal. But after further investigation. Yes there was a beer can 9 sq.in. and the laundry bag was out another 225 sq. in. An empty pizza box 144 sq.in. I think you get the picture. I live in hummm....23328 sq.in. That's around humm....yeup 162 sq.ft. Cough..whooa!! Lets count the dingy. That add's humm ......32 sq.ft or 4608 sq.in. To make a long story short the dink is gona carry out about 600 sq.in. of junk that has gathered up.
People on boats are always giving stuff away.. Hey dude ya want this.....huh nah, thanks .. how bout this ....only 7 sq.in.'s!! Hummm let me think about it...
My house was about 2000 sq.ft. that's a whole bunch of inch's. And it was packed!! Talk about a life change. Amazing how much stuff ya really don't need.
You would think with less Sq.In.'s it would be easier to keep clean. Well one missed placed pot or plate and whamo it's a mess!!
I love it!! Talk about going green, off the grid ,tiny foot prints and all that stuff. G's the world doesn't even know I'm here. Well in a way I'm not even on the earth so that's even more space for folks on land. Wow I feel good doing all this for humanity!! Nah it's a selfish act and I know it. I'm the Dictator of my Island!!
Just kidden.... the "Dictator" has to go do laundry and fold it really tight......Sq.in's. ya know.

Aaaa man Im sellin an old friend







In the effort to slim down the "THINGS" and "STUFF" Im sellin the ole Jeep. What a good friend she's been. She's never left me on the the side of the road. She's always pulled me out a trouble. She's always been fun and ready for another adventure. Shhheeeeesh sounds like the perfect woman. Anyway I don't have anywhere to keep her the wall parking is at best shitty and I refuse to be a 2 car'er jerk. Like Captain Parkinglot. So she's off to a new home. Besides Im road trippin my daughter car out to her in N.C. Soo can use the money to fix up her ride and have fun on the way.



I'll always remember the Yeep with found memories.



The only thing Ive ever hit with her was cacti Baja can be brutal.
