What we are up to:

We are currently in St. Maarten (Dutch side) on our sailboat. If your call goes to voice mail, please leave us a message with your phone number (twice) and email address and we'll get back to you ASAP. We apologize for this inconvenience but quite often our Globalstar satellite phone service is not as good as what you see in the movies :) Be sure to pop us an email as well, if possible.

Last weekend we actually took some time off and went sailing! We went up to Anguilla for 4 days to attend the Jimmy Buffett concert last Saturday, March 24, 2007. We last saw Jimmy back in Seattle, Washington just before we left the States in 1980. He still gives a great concert! The location of the event at Bankie Banx Dune Preserve (http://www.bankiebanx.net/) in Anguilla was a great setting for this concert. Weather also cooperated. Good show, guys!

HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU SOON!

All the best!
