Here are just a few thoughts to get you through the blue-blazing lava heat of the summer time, hummm...Alaska...snow on your eye lashes, ice skating, slushies from Sonic...cold headaches!
I was told by a lot of people that Panama City had like record cold here last winter so I hope you’ve all had your fill of being cold, because from now until Forever, you’re going to be one unshaded moment away from spontaneously combusting. At the boatyard, in the summertime, it feels like you are actually walking, breathing and swimming thru Lava!
Did I say it's hot here? Well it is and we are just getting started. So it's time to get excited about sweating through everything you own!

We really HAVE been making progress on the boat, slow, but some. It seems like every time you fix one problem, another one rears it's ugly head. We had the hull UT scanned and that came out good, but where the old batteries were, there was a small hole from the leaking battery acid, we had addressed this issue the last time we hauled out, but apparently it was worse them we knew and we found more holes. That lead us to cutting out a new section of the hull as large as a window and then welding a new patch.
Everyone who has a boat and has been on the hard knows that this is a alien place and I for one will be so glad to be back on Adagio....then I plan to rise to the occasion, above all this dust, heat and lava.....you can meet me at Sonic, I will be the one sucking down all the slushies!
When my mother brought us together during her struggle to pass away I was so grateful for you to be there for me. It was like you were not human to me, you were angelic. You still are this beautiful person. I didn't get to spend much time with you to talk about you, but my Mom knew you were special and admired you. For my Mom to speak greatly of someone that i had never met....really meant that. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI miss you. I wish to see you again whether I have to board a boat, train or car to see you again. You will always be an angel on earth for me Bambi.
I love reading about your adventures. I wish for smooth and easy repairs to get you back at sea. I pray to board the Adagio some day just to feel her spirit and enjoy life. Please keep the stories coming I enjoy them so much. Let me know if you ever need anything. I would go thru lava to get it to you.....with love slways, Karen Stansel ie; Glory's daughter
