Our campsite. You can click on the photo and find the ole Ford Ranger parked next to our rigg.
BILLY MARTINELLI'S "GAS LIGHT". Bill has been a friend I've not seen in 35+ years. We have surfed the channel islands together, dove there too and in Hawaii. He built this steel hulled sailing vessel from the keel up completing her in 1991.

On the road again!
We will miss it (Indialantic) but here we are at the south end of central California (Pismo Beach) headed to Oregon and it's pretty darn exciting. May 1st, 2011.
The place looked nice when we left

RESTORE THIS!

A classic 1913 motor yacht.
What a great Florida winter project.


It would be a great winter restoration project with BREVARD HARDWOODS on the property.
A bevy of barnyard beauties for company.
Lilly's bodyguard Boris


This is Lilly and she's not for breakfast.


Finally found a real woodshop close to home where I can find exotic woods.
