Hi Judy, We had my father and mother both buried at sea. We used this service and they did a superb job. This is near San Diego though. We...
An interesting point you brought up. I've kind of wondered if anyone laid out a design where the number of state rooms was reduced in favor of...
Kiwi, Thanks for your insightful post. Six years ago on Christmas Eve, my father died. Even though it was expected, it still hit me hard. Our...

I saw a couple of recent technological breakthroughs that seem interesting. The first one involves using micro beads to capture carbon and the...
On the bright side, in a few years you might be able to cruise up and down the streets of St. Augustine in your boat.:D
