Today, one last parting shot at a harsh winter and a spring that at times has appeared overwhelmed by the task at hand. However, the work of springtime finally is in high gear around here, evidenced by the hit-and-miss nature of Web updates this week. Sometimes, the corporeal world will not wait.

Mark, once a Texan, always a Texan. We brand all the little stray calves you know!

Ruth Anne, our group Watertribe uses tribal names rather than our real names. (Well anyone can find our true names of course) But I am StoryTeller and Mike is Woodcutter.
Robb White was always someone I admired so much, as much for his ethics, values, wisdom, humor besides writing so well.
Watertribe is an international group but based in Florida. We have many inspirational boaters who are also writers. In fact, Watertribe is more about finding yourself and facing your own soul and being than it is boating I think.

I will admit that I am a writer and hope that JJ will not throw me out for being one. I have nothing to sell, nor do I profit, but I love the written word.

This will take you to one of my columns, “The Gift of Little Boats”. There are others of course. I have written all of my adult life, just not about boats. When I took on the care of my 93 year old mother I found myself with writer’s block and difficulty writing anything.
I found the Village here and lurked for a couple of years, reading you all before sticking my foot in. I wish that I knew each of you personally because you seem to be “my kind of people.”

You can google Jackie Monies boating or sailing or anything similar. I am NOT the Jackie Money that shows up a lot. I am only Jackie Monies in America apparently per white pages.

Jackie, I’ll never leave Texas. My family is here, My Real Fancily is here and that’s where I’ll stay. I’m Texas born and Texas bred, and when I die, I’ll be Texas dead.
Lilyblack – I can relate, I don’t care where I am, as long as it’s between Dalhart, El Paso , Texarkana and Brownsville, – and fish have always been a problem for me since I saw The Incredible Mr. Limpett at a Loew’s Drive-in when I was a little impressionable kid
