Trying to start a new blog of our travels while staying in Grenada for indefinite time
It's been already more than a year since we are living on our beautiful Valiant 40" Lucky Seven monohull. We managed to change our regular lives from the comfortable living in Austin suburb and regular paychecks to the "leave-aboard full time cruisers". On July 2d, 2013, after 1.5 years of dedicated fixing, reconstructing, breaking, investing 200% of the price into newly bought 30 year old boat, our Lucky Seven finally splashed in the waters of the Golf of Mexico, in the Clear Lake Marina. We were happy, scarred, confused of unknown and looking forward for our new life. Soon after, we elaborated ourselves from a house, our cat Johny II of 12 years, a condo, three cars, phone bills, jobs and everything else which could keep us back in Austin. Our two daughters are grown up already, living separately, visiting home once in two months, seems were ok with us to go, and somewhere excited to visit us at some exotic places sometime.
Since October 4, 2013, we sailed more than 4000 miles starting from Galveston in Golf of Mexico, via ICU through Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, Bahamas, Hispaniola, Leeward and Windward islands, and finally settled in Grenada, West Indies.
We "lost" our old blog, and, so, we will try to start again and will try to keep up with it more regularly than we had before.
Also, we will try to reconstruct some of our memories of the past year travels.
