This post includes the blog equivalent of leftover images of our car trip on South Caicos and some views of old buildings from various places. And some final thoughts on the place. This was also ...
As I continue to shamelessly squeeze this South Caicos sailing trip for all it's worth. We really got into the swing of being anchored at Cockburn Harbour. It didn't take long for life on t...

This was a difficult post. I was just finishing it up when our beloved little dog Dooley died unexpectedly. I wasn't sure how to address it in the blog. I've decided...

We spent a couple of weeks anchored in Cockburn Harbour over on the far side of this little tropical island nation. We were in a beautiful anchorage, tucked up unde...

We're mentally kicking ourselves for waiting all these years to visit South Caicos. We've had opportunities from time to time but it always just seemed to be more ...

This is yet another Sapodilla sunrise from yet another morning on the hook. We've been fine tuning the boat getting ready to leave Provo for a slightly more serious excursion. &n...

This is going to be really similar to the previous post about our first mini-shakedown cruise on Twisted Sheets. We finally got out of the marina and anchored over in Sap...

We've been working on an old sailboat for years now. Fond families and favored friends who've faithfully followed our foolish and frustrated follies ...
This post got a little bit out of hand. I was looking through all the various boat photos that have been accumulating over the last few weeks and decided to lump them t...

This is about the remainder of our little bouncy rubber boatie trip out to Turtle Rock and back last week. We got beat up in squall chop. There might be a blu...

We're taking a break from the string of Providenciales photos that have been posted here lately. For what seems like forever, actually. I know that you&n...
I'm going to write about something other than boat issues this time. It's not easy to ignore them while living in the middle of them. But we all need a break from time to time.&...

Abraham Maslow once nearly said: When the only tool you have is a hammer, all of your problems start looking like nails. And for this post, alas, I find myself with no sunrises worth visually rep...

I assured you that I'd try to avoid these long drawn-out blog posts. And I try. Honest, I really do. The long posts are time consuming. I much prefer the short ones I can ...

The True Story of an Island Dog Unwillingly Transported to an Alien Landscape! I'm just a simple island dog. I've been living on a tropical island for ten years. Ok, so I'm an OL...
I ended the previous post with a photo of Harbour Club Villas and Marina’s sign. I shamelessly used that nice graphic as a sunset image to conform with the way we like to ...

There's been a lot going on in the Gringo household these past few months. I have a bunch of photos about it, but it's not very tropical looking. It is about our life here, ...

We're going to do something completely different this week. We've got some really nice photos of Pine Cay, and we didn't take any of them. When I say nice photos, I really do mean ni...

The boat on the right is the s/v CLV, which we have learned is short for C'est La Vie. Cool. In last weeks' post this 10m boat had pulled into South Side Marina. with three Swe...
I 'd like to take a half hour or so of your time just to report all the fantastic fun stuff we did this week. I really would. But my nose would probably grow to the point where ...

I like to open these posts up with a good sunrise photo when I can. And I usually can. Even on this new weekly schedule, there seems to be a decent sunrise or two out of seven. ...
This blog-a-week schedule has caught up with me. And left me in the dust. The sun popped up into clear skies this morning and woke me with a tropical slap to the old optic nerves. I t...
