Ketch of the Day


You've probably seen the bumper sticker, "I'd rather be sailing."  Well, here is the blog.  Even under light winds, a day on the water is a meditation on the elements.  Focusing the senses on wind and water, focuses the spirit as well.  Extraordinary fractal images on land, sea and sky reset the central nervous system and reorient priorities.











Viewing the dramatic Saint Lucia coastline from the sea is an colorful lesson in geology and land formation. The volcanic island is pummeled into shape and striation by surf and wind gusts, and the resulting topography is strikingly beautiful.  Some cliff faces appear to be carved carefully by hand and swabbed  in shades of caramel and taupe.  Others, layered by lava provide a tapestry of umber and sienna. Mother Nature never fails to deliver a spectacular show.
