Kay and I went to Greece on vacation last September with friends from the Gulfstream Sailing Club! In the first part of our trip, we toured the ancient sites of Athens and the mountaintop monasteries of Meteora. The video is 13 minutes long. Please take a look!

@kaydoll.bsky.social and I are busy making repairs after our trip to the Bahamas so we can go cruising again! Here, Kay holds up a piece of frayed topping lift we replaced. Our prop shaft coupler that was throwing nuts has been fixed, we replaced the wind instrument, fixed the autopilot, and more.

Playing my guitar and singing Jimmy Buffett and Bob Marley songs while drinking a rum drink on my sailboat off an uninhabited island in the Bahamas. It's been on my bucket list for awhile. #Bahamas #sailboat #rum

Kay Dolliver Decker and I watched the launch of #SpaceX #Starship 8 live on our laptop yesterday, 3/6/25. When we saw it had gone out of control, we stepped outside and watched the explosion. I got about a minute of footage before my GoPro battery died. Enjoy! youtu.be/1XA85gI3yiQ

Marbury v Madison is a seminal case from 1803 that holds that the federal courts must determine the constitutionality of the actions of the other two branches of government. Hope that helps, Stephen.

Hey Bluesky! I’m here.
Yes, I’m still a bit stunned by my prescient tweet (below) 14hrs before the tragic DC crash, after which many of you encouraged me to finally gravitate to here.
Happy to belatedly join the community. Tom
