I think that if I try to do this, I might accidentally cause all of the satellites to fall out of the sky.

When in port I'm sure he will find plenty to eat.<br /><br />The sail itself was nice. Would have loved to have had you guys on board. Really wish I could have shared the experience with my wife though.<br /><br />You are going to have to let me know how studying for the 6-pack license goes, I want to do that as well at some point.<br /><br />-MikeMike Boydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14279932231094933575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4773370276862539169.post-31266121268942606182014-05-15T07:36:11.398-06:002014-05-15T07:36:11.398-06:00I vote for the name "Rango"! You might b...I vote for the name "Rango"! You might be surprised to find him again and even realize he probably knows where to find a few bugs to keep him satisfied. We had one that stowed away from Florida to West Virginia in the middle of winter. He was nearly frozen when we found him in the back of the truck, but we brought him in, warmed him up and set up an aquarium for him. We bought a dozen pinhead crickets (tiny, little buggers) every two weeks and he lived with us for a year up there before we returned him to Florida. You could always stock your boat with little pinhead crickets each time you make port! LOL You won't even know they are around, but Rango will know where to find them!<br /><br />Glad you made it safely. Reading about your sail made me wish our schedule had worked out better. We'd have loved to make the trip with you. I'm sorry to hear you lost your crew, but it sounds like you learned a lot along the way. Pretty neat that you have blog followers nearby willing to come and jump aboard. I hope you find someone in the area and really hope you get your wife aboard soon!Diving Into Cruising (Britton)http://www.divingintocruising.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4773370276862539169.post-8585104079424211662014-05-15T05:55:09.551-06:002014-05-15T05:55:09.551-06:00Hi Ellen,

He might have had enough sailing. If he is still around, I'll think about a name...may need to put out a water dish too.<br /><br />As for the read from the start widget, it is actually a link combined with some code I had to add to the Blogger template. I found the instructions after searching on Google. I think these are the instructions I used:<br /><a href="http://yabtb.blogspot.com/2011/09/blogger-posts-chronological-order.html" rel="nofollow">http://yabtb.blogspot.com/2011/09/blogger-posts-chronological-order.html</a><br /><br />-MikeMike Boydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14279932231094933575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4773370276862539169.post-80188373369565290392014-05-15T00:45:50.033-06:002014-05-15T00:45:50.033-06:00Glad you made it safe and sound.

I think he is in it for the long haul with you! <br /><br />On an unrelated note, how did you do that read from the start widget? Great idea to be able to take people to your first post so that they can read from the very beginning. <br /><br />Cheers - EllenThe Cynical Sailorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11047491682363507834noreply@blogger.com
