Landfall is For Sale!!!

Landfall is For Sale!!!

          Landfall is for sale! It’s been a great run, but we’re focused on growing our business and getting degrees and as it turns out, that leaves almost no time for sailing. It’s all good though, we’ll be back on the water, soon enough $12,500, lying in La Cruz de Huanacaxtle, Nayarit, Mexico. We’ll assist with […]

“How-la?,” she said, with the standard-issue grab bag of tells that lets everyone within a half-kilometer radius know that this person is here on vacation, staying at an all-inclusive resort, and sobered up enough to realize they’ve suddenly found themselves outside said resort…in MEXICO.  She was standing there, like a red and white striped zebra, […]

Mexican Men Are Incurable Romantics

Also, horny as fuck. I don’t know if it’s the light eyes, the guera status, the crazy color hair, the tattoos, the fact that I’m a girl who also works on engines and goes up masts and rescues boats, or simply the part where I’m a female in the near vicinity…but they are relentless in […]

So, Like, This One Time I Died?

So, Like, This One Time I Died?

Say that in a Valley Girl accent. It’s kind of funny if you have a defective but overactive sense of humor, like me. A Valley Girl preparing to tell a very serious story about a potentially global life-changing event but saying it in the form of a question. I crack myself up. But yeah, that […]

Landfall on Google Maps Street View

Because achondroplasia is a bone-growth disorder, the ability of his skeleton to support the normal weight of his body […]
