April 30, 2005 - Isla Mujeres, Mexico

Living on the edge of leaving

Good weather is everything when you sail. We've been on the lookout for it, so we can begin our sail down to Panama. Yes, Panama. We're planning to load the motorcycle onto a boat we're delivering there, and then ride back to Mexico. Seems like it would be a great journey, though we're still not a hundred percent sure if we'll take the bike.

There is a fluidity to my plans these days that is unparallelled to anything I've ever known. My tentative summer plans include driving out to the Western US, sailing north to Maine, or crossing the Atlantic to visit Europe. But talk to me tomorrow and I may be headed for Honduras. Really. Summer is approaching at a frightening pace and Isla is starting to feel the heat, but it will be at least another month before I'll know where I'm going for the season. First, we need to have good weather (and a motorcycle on deck) for our Panama adventure.
