Adults-only escape to sail in the Caribbean

(writing this 1/23/22 about a trip taken 12/27/16-1/5/17)

Though this is obviously not in the southwest (or even the US), it’s nevertheless an awesome trip we slipped in between the parenting and I’m posting it here so I can look back on it and jog good memories.

Many (most?) of the photos (and all of the good ones) were taken by Gary, but I can’t remember which ones, so let’s give all photo credits to him.

We went back to the farm in NJ to spend Christmas with my parents, and then we left the boys there so Karen and I could fly to the Grenadines to meet up with friends. We rented a catamaran and sailed. It was the first time Karen and I had been back on a boat since we sailed across the pacific, and it was wonderful.

We’re a homeschooling family in Los Alamos, New Mexico, hoping to give our boys a love for the great outdoors and provide them with skills they’ll enjoy for life. When it comes to camping, we are experts at getting off the beaten path, away from crowded campgrounds.  And adventuring to us can be as simple as checking out a local park or as ambitious as hiking a Colorado 14’er.
