2005-2006 Calendar After a fabulous, intense time in the Culinary program at Northwest Culinary last year, Scott's returned for their Baking & Pastry program, from mid-April til early August. Kathy joined him in May and late July/Aug. The blog starts here.

Renewed Aggressor Liveaboard Dive Trip Our last trip was cancelled due to the Nefarious Hurricane Ivan, who pounded the Cayman Islands and made our trip a no-go. We're booked for Sept 3-10. [Update: fabulous. Flawless weather, great crew, calm seas. It does not get any better than this.] Back to the Beach We spent November in the Florida Keys, early December on the same tall ship cruise we did last year (but for two weeks this time), and then our usual Christmas in the Keys. We were in Florida roughly October 30 to January 4.

Winter 2006 We've complete our 104 day cruise to Antarctica, South Sea Islands, Easter Island and Galapagoes, on the MV Discovery.

We left in mid-January and returned in mid-May, stopping for a week to visit with friends Dave & Jim in their fabulous Buenos Aires winter "residence"

Quick flight west for a schoolmate's wedding toward the end of May. Summer 2006 We're back in Vancouver, BC where we purchased a city condo in 2005. We left mid-June and expect to stay to mid-September. We drive, taking the northern route westward. We'll return toward the south with stops in Utah, Texas, Arkansas, and Tennessee (and where else? who knows!). We expect to drive around 8800 miles. The log starts here. What's next?
