What's a bilge pump? A question that arose as I stand knees deep in water. My 27 ft Catalina sluggishly making its way to an unoccupied dock in front of us. Even halfway underwater a sailboat is extremely safe it's the other 50% that is a cause for concern. Rick and I had left my slip in Long Beach Harbor that Saturday morning for a few hours of spearfishing in front of the Palos Verde cliffs. A trip I had made many times before. But nothing beats a sale. The wind in the sales, cold beer in the fridge a grill hot and ready to fry up our catch. The coast of California is a truly beautiful and changing environment. From San Diego to San Francisco the landscape continually changes the water a bit brisk is refreshing and cool against the stark contrast of the 100° sweltering Heat of Los Angeles. Cooking an egg on a 405 freeway Southern California. Rick more like a brother in his life Spends His Days running a machine shop with his wife. My 1979 Catalina sailboat a spectacular find...
I stare at the sheet of paper before me my feet proped up as i lay in my lime green Hammock ive inheareted. The few belongings ive acumulated hanging from the bars. The warn bags, eco friendly as they say on the side. The canvas warn but still holding up after months of searching threw them. Others going about there day. Making calls on the remaining smuggled phones the police failed to find during the raid. Some prepairing dinner on the doubble burrner stove in our makeshift kitchen. a stove on a sink. I hang suspended above out of the way, left to my own device. I ponder my life as the epic memories sustain my beeing. Moments of my past remembered wih a twitch of my brow as I question how I made it this far for this long. Avoiding death over and over again. Making life changing decisions repeatedly in favor of aventure and Rial. My moral compass spinning out of controle as I realize I dont much have one. As my current situation can atest to. My home for the past two years,...
Mis manos agarrando firmemente el volante sosteniendo la dona. La rotonda viajo dando vueltas y vueltas. Sin destino, sin meta, ni siquiera había empacado. El olor a auto nuevo persiste en mis fosas nasales. El sistema de sonido esquisit lanzando elegantemente salsa de Puerto Rico lanzó sus Boes. Todo lo que esperarías de un sedán de lujo de gama alta. El elemento básico del éxito a $ 80,000. El Mercedes-AMG C63 Coupe se deslizó por la rotonda con facilidad. Entrando y saliendo del tráfico estancado a mi alrededor. Tal como fue ese 4 de julio de 2020. Nunca hubiera imaginado el apuro en el que me encontré. Fue así de fácil. Caminé por el bulevar a la mitad del día, dejando atrás mi albergue. Yo no tenía un plan. Sterling quiere un coche en mi agenda. Simplemente sucedió. Sabía que comenzaría y lo hizo. He semen el Mercedes, por un momento unos días antes, en exhibición a lo largo del b...
