#42 March 2012 Marathon – Key Largo – Miami – Boca Raton – Palm Beach – Peck Lake

#38 Isle of Palms, SC September 2011
September was an exceptionally fun month for us as we were securely tied to our slip in Wild Dunes. Long ago when we were gainfully employed in Greenville, SC, we faithfully arose at 4:40 each weekday morning to meet a group of friends at 5:30 A.M.&nb…
