Been patiently waiting.
Now it's happened.
The child bride is asking when we might go cruising again. :D

Too weird...I was just logging in to send you a PM and email to see where the heck you've been! Great to see you're still around and planning another cruise.

Any progress on Skinnydip's emotor?

Great hearing from you! Of course we are happy to hear you've got another cruise planned, but I'm curious about Skinnydip, too.

So glad to hear from you GB. Even if it is not one of your long classic cruises just getting out there will be great. Lot happened here to me since my last post to you. I had my second back surgery in April and my wife Deb passed on June 30 at only 70 1/2 years old. God bless you and your child bride for being able to take your cruises and keeping me young at heart. Regards, Tom
