Fall '08 Return to Mystique

We left Mystique all summer in the water at a dock in Jupiter, FL under the care of a local "boat guy". We're now ready to leave Frisco for the boat. Jan flies to Philadelphia Thursday 10/16 for a girls' weekend with friends from her early days in respiratory therapy in Denver. Then we both fly to West Palm Beach next Tuesday.

We'll spend a few days at a motel while we get the boat cleaned up and move ALL our stuff from the air conditioned storage unit back on to the boat (if we can remember where we left the combination to the lock!). We'll work on Mystique's ToDo list before leaving Jupiter and moving the boat down to Ft. Lauderdale where our Frisco sailing friend Jim Powell will join us 10/29. Then we three will await favorable weather to cross the Gulf Stream and head for the Exumas, SE of Nassau. Jim will fly home November 13, from George Town, Exuma.

Jan and I will sail Mystique back up to Nassau where Megan and Jeremy will join us for some island hopping Thanksgiving week. Then Jan and I will sail back down this beautiful chain of islands to George Town where we'll leave the boat on a mooring and fly home December 7 for the holidays and ski season.

We'll try to keep you posted as we go, but WiFi hotspots may be hard to come by.

I'm not biased or anything, but sounds like a great trip ahead! Turkeys or margaritas... hmmm... hard decision!
