Friends I Met In Placencia Beach By Lily
I met two girls today, Ocean and Hermina. As a game we rubbed sand over ourselves and jumped into the water. We were swimming and I got stung by a jellyfish and Ocean and Hermina’s mother sprayed some stuff on the sting. A book I read not to long ago that was called Watership Down. […]
The Turtle Hospital
At the Turtle Hospital they tell about how you can help the turtles. Some turtles get bubble butt and are permanent residents. Bubble butt means that they get air in the bottom and can’t dive correctly. To help them dive, some have weights on their shells. The weights can fall off as their shells grow […]

Pretty soon, he was charging 24 cents for tours of his exotic botanical garden. […]

Is anyone there??” Lily’s welcoming party was already here; Archer was near the stern, paddling around in her new inflatable kayak. She immediately invited Lily on for a few spins around the marina. They have […]
All Tied Up With Homeschool
Did you know you can’t tie a boat to a dock? I don’t mean that it can be challenging in high winds or that the current always seems against the idea. I mean that it can’t be done, according to my March, 2012 edition of Cruising World. Cruising World’s Mailbag section features a letter to […]
Dilly Dally With Dali
“What is a television apparatus to man, who has only to shut his eyes to see the most inaccessible regions of the seen and the never seen, who has only to imagine in order to pierce through walls and cause all the planetary Baghdads of his dreams to rise from the dust.” — Salvador Dali […]
