  1. so… you’ve been moored at Sweet Water for almost 2 months now – are you missing the travel? The name “sweet water” reminds me of a book I’d like to recommend – it’s by Michael Crummey (a Nfld author) and called “Sweetland” – I really enjoyed it (the 3rd one of his I have really liked) and think you may too (if you like reading fiction) 🙂

    • Hi Martha,
      Definitely getting itchy feet, although this is a really beautiful place to spend the winter. We have the blue Mediterranean in front of us and the Sierra Nevada behind us, bright blue skies and great weather. It’s the second half of November and we’re still swimming in the sea!

      Michael Crummey – I’ll have to look him up. You, Martha, were the person who introduced me to the joys of maritime Canadian fiction – Anne Marie McDermot, Annie Proulx, and others who’ve slipped my mind for the minute. I’ll definitely take your latest recommendation!! I’ll add it to my Christmas wish list.
