Titusville Reunions

The Space Coast is filled with our friends, many who originated from Connecticut. We enjoyed several wonderful, fun-filled visits while we were in Titusville. One friend, Charlie Farinha, grew up with me in Groton Connecticut. We hadn't seen each other since our high school graduation, over 40 years ago! Thanks to social media, we were able to reconnect. I really enjoyed getting to know his lovely wife Gina and hope to see them again.

Dave and I love visiting old friends and meeting new ones. We often go out of our way to see the people we know and love. It's a big part of our life's journey!

As we head north in a few days, we begin a new chapter and new territory on the Great Loop! To cross our wake, (complete our loop), we'll have to make our way to the Hudson River and through the Erie Canal then return to the Great Lakes. Dave and I have cruised the waters from Norfolk Virginia to the Space Coast before, but most of that was accomplished a very long time ago. Last summer we traveled from Beaufort South Carolina to Hampton Virginia aboard sailing vessel Veritas with friends Susan Beabes and David Taylor. We met them along the western half of the Great Loop and have kept in touch. This is what happens in the cruising world; we make life-long friendships!

When we reach Hampton on this journey, I will be in completely new waters. Dave traversed the eastern portion of the Great Loop back in the 80's aboard our 23 foot Coronado S/V Keewatin. It has been such a long time since that trip that this section will be somewhat new to him as well. We are excited to experience this together.
