I recently attended a meetup hosted by PlaNoPoCo and Mavs & Mocha, a Mavericks Region Porsche Club of America group. Since it was my first time, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect, so I did what any sensible introvert does—I parked my papaya-colored Porsche Macan S near the back of the pack and cautiously…

Exploring Cleburne State Park: Hiking the Spillway Trail to Scenic Views
With the sun shining and a perfect Texas sky overhead, Liz and I decided to take a drive and spend the day hiking and exploring Cleburne State Park. We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day to hit the trails and take in the sights. Following the Spillway Trail to the Overlook We started…
Refined Relaxation and Farewell at Peter Island ⛵🌴🍽️
We left The Bight at Norman Island this morning around 11 AM, taking our time since we were heading to Peter Island, just under an hour away. It’s Antonio and Tia’s last night, so we wanted to keep it close to the Moorings base in Road Town, Tortola. Plus, we enjoyed our stay here last…
Returning to Peter Island: A Nostalgic and Luxurious Experience
Peter Island Marina Pool We recently visited Peter Island in February 2025, just months after its long-anticipated reopening. This island has always held a special place in our hearts—Deadman’s Bay was the very first anchorage we dropped a hook in during our honeymoon, which also happened to be our first bareboat charter in the Caribbean….
A typical Day at The Soggy Dollar May 26, 2024

Locked in at Marina Cay & Another Great Night at Loose Mongoose ⛵🍽️
We’ve been tied up to the same reserved mooring ball at Marina Cay for two nights in a row. No, we didn’t pay extra to reserve it days in advance, and no, we didn’t game the system by having everyone on board try to grab a ball at the same time. We like the morning…
Why We Love Cooper Island Beach Club 🌴🍹
Not everyone enjoys Cooper Island Beach Club. Some find it a bit dull since there’s not much to do here other than relax on the beach, sip on a selection of hundreds of rums at the rum bar, grab a coffee or ice cream, browse the boutique, check out the dive shop, or enjoy great…
🌊 Another Trip for the Record Books: February 2025 in the BVI ⛵

Once again, we found ourselves back in the British Virgin Islands in February 2025, soaking in the beauty, relaxation, and adventure that keeps bringing us back time and time again. This time we were joined by our friends Tia and Antonio from Dallas. Jeff and Kathlene were…
