This book is the sequel to The Voyage of Drift Away: Stamford to
Annapolis. The first book detailed getting Drift Away in running
order, the terror of losing both engines off Sandy Hook, and other
amusing stories. This book is truly more like a cruising guide, but
rather than detail the trip and the marinas we stayed at as other
guides do, I will tell you about some of the people we met and the
fun we had. Most of the folks were other live aboards, but not all.
Some were passing through, and others were locals. A friend once
described cruisers as a small town that moved up and down the
coast. live aboards tend to stay in one place for a long time
before moving on, if they move on at all. That is the fun of the
live aboard lifestyle. If you like a place, stay. If you don't,
move on and explore the next place. This book has a goodly number
of photographs. I love photography and I hope you do too. If not,
perhaps you will after reading this book. Sit back and enjoy the
trip!
This is not a cruising guide. It is not a travelogue. Nor is it a
how-to-fix-an-old-boat book. This is a live aboard lifestyle book.
It describes what it is truly like to live on an old boat, warts
and all. Our adventures were made more enjoyable, and sometimes
more hilarious, by the addition of cats and large dogs. You just
can't make this stuff up. Our book hides nothing. It will tell you
of the highs and lows, the good times and the bad, the joy and the
terror, and the wonder and the boredom of living aboard. It will
describe the many boat projects undertaken to make Drift Away
seaworthy once again. It will relate the costs involved, and the
pitfalls we experienced. If we could do it, so can you.
This book is my opinion of the behavior of the Keepers of the
Forest, based on three years of habituating with Sasquatch and
interacting with them on an almost daily basis. I think it is
important to point out that while I am convinced I am right, as
explained in this small booklet, I could very well be wrong. There
are no experts in this field. Also consider that there may very
well be more than one species of cryptid that we lump into one we
call Sasquatch. As is explained in this little book, I am firmly
convinced that our Sasquatch in the Adirondack Mountains of upstate
New York are a people, not too unlike us, but yet very different. I
am in total agreement with the Iroquois and other Native Americans
who hold similar beliefs.
All of the events described in this book actually happened to Dave
and Pam Gibson. Truly, no one is more amazed than they are. They
bought land and rented a small cabin to live in while they built
their mountain home. In the first year, they were oblivious to the
creatures that lived near and passed by their cabin. In the second
summer there, they found their first Sasquatch footprint. They
discovered that Sasquatches were not only real, but that they lived
among them. This book chronicles their path from nonbelievers in
Sasquatch to knowers over a very short period of time, but also
reveals many amazing things about these incredible beings. One
Sasquatch, in particular, developed a fondness for Pam. She left it
apples, and it left her flowers and even half of a squirrel. She
also learned that she could communicate with it. Follow their
journey of learning of Sasquatch, North America's most amazing
being.
This book which details the very dire consequences of illegal
immigration, as well as the stark cultural differences between the
U.S. and Mexico. The authors also reveal the not-so hidden agendas
of both governmental and private interests in both nations, and
offer real solutions to the ongoing invasion and occupation of this
country.
This shocking read exposes the fact that if illegal immigration
is left unchecked, ours will soon become a Third World nation.
Until the problem is taken seriously, every American is in
danger.
