15 wonderful years and still counting
« on: February 23, 2013, 06:28:03 AM »
Hello,

It we have been gone a number of years traveling around the world but now we are back in Florida for a while as our boat is undergoing a major refit which will take until November. We have been together now for 15 years (sometimes it is hard for me to believe) and things could not be better. We are all in good health and our daughter is growing up into a good responsible young lady. She is 10 and growing like a weed.

I have attached our most recent family pictures which were taken just before Christmas here in Florida.

We hope all of you are doing well.

Michael, Viktoria and Anastasia

Just two weeks ago I was running through a list of RWD scarcities in my head, Michael, and TigerPaws was among them....  you three look fabulous, and I'm glad to hear you are doing well.
 
Smooth sailing ahead !!

Congrats and good to see you pop in to tell us about your happiness.
Fund the audits, spread the word and educate people, write your politicians and other elected officials. Stay active in the fight to save our country. Over 220 generals and admirals say we are in a fight for our survival like no other time since 1776.

Great to see you pop in.  Congratulations on the milestone.  I have often wondered how you were doing. When my wife and I have made trips to the Caribbean we have talked about you every time we saw a boat something on the order of yours. It has been a while. It seems to me when you were last here you were helping me some in my search and I have been married now a little over 5 years.

I remember you as well. Yes it has been awhile. Congratulations on a wonderful milestone. Turbo is now at 5 and in a few short months I will be hitting 3. Time does pass. I often wondered how life must be sailing around the oceans. Perhaps you can relate some of the more memorable places you visited? I assume you are rag beater as opposed to a motor head?

Wow, 15 years. Congrats!!!

Just 2 behind you.

I don't think we'll ever catch you. Those are my sincerest wishes.
