This blog began in late 2006 with the planning and preparation for a circumnavigation of the world in my 39-foot sail boat Pachuca. It then covered a successful 5-year circumnavigation that ended in April 2013. The blog now covers life with Pachuca back home in Australia.

4th of July














Arnold picked me up on Friday afternoon and I spent the 4th of July at his home with Sandra, Denver the Dog, and the two cats.

We went to Kingston's 4th of July parade which I enjoyed immensely because it lived up to my expectations of small town America complete with town major and cops, fire engines, scouts, pubescent beauty queens on vintage cars, high school band, excited children, pet dogs, etc.

That evening we returned to the waterfront and enjoyed fireworks on both sides of us and across the water from Seattle to the north as far as the eye could see.

Enclosed are a selection of photos. The line of 5 sheriff staff bearing the flags opened the parade.
