Intentions

Welcome; the intention is to tell a little about my whereabouts, travel adventures, and issues at Elk Ridge, including when I will be on the ranch, when a great time to visit (send grandchildren), etc. Hopefully there will be different divisions for Travel, Ranch Activities, etc.

Howdy!

Greetings, this time from the middle of the English Channel, heading for the French coast.
 Last night we Were to have sailed to the Isles of Scilly, but the weather was bad and we diverted to a charming little old British sea port called Falmouth. We didn't take any tours there per se, but had a great time walking around the town, doing a little shopping (I bought a cool British hat, Lynn got a sweater and neck wrap). It rained and was cool and overcast but I figure we will really miss that when we get home! Had some Great fish and chips and a tasty local beer in one of the little pubs overlooking the harbor. Was a great day, and now we are on the high seas again! Tonight it's a little rocky...
 Tomorrow we arrive in St. Malo, on the French coast. We have all day in France, don't have to get back to the ship until 11 pm! Yea! We are going to take the tour of Mont Ste. Michel. Inger, do you have any memories of that?? You were There, climbing around the walls and up and down the stairs. I have a picture of you somewhere next to a huge fireplace...age 6 or 7.
 Looking forward to some local French lunches and even a dinner tomorrow night.
 Tomorrow night is Lynn and my 6 mo anniversary...oh I can hear you now, "sheeesh Dad, what are you, 17?"
 We are having a great time;
 I wish I could send a photo along with my Droid now and then but I can't get that contraption to work on this boat.
 Lynn has some photos she has taken, will email them to me, and I will try to forward them and see if that works.
Love to All, DAD
