Book Description
This book is a sequel to The Voyage of Drift Away: Stamford to Annapolis and The Voyage of Drift Away: Annapolis to Savannah. The first book detailed getting Drift Away in running order, and stories like the terror of losing both engines off Sandy Hook, as well as other amusing tales. The second book is a combination of how-I-did-it and cruising guide. This book is truly more like a live-aboard cruising guide, but rather than detailing the trip and the marinas we stayed at as other guides do, I will tell you about some of the people we met and the fun we had.

Book Description
Coincidences, synchronicities, and dreams bear marked similarities. They often catch us off guard, and we tend to easily discount them without giving them much thought. The signs and symbols involved are considered to be guideposts for the wise as they each hold much meaning and significance if we are open and receptive to their messages.

Book Description
"Yes, God Really Is 'Up There!'" provides answers for many of life's questions. It has been written by a man whose earliest childhood memory is of shivering in the winter cold while trying to sleep on a bale of hay in a drafty barn somewhere in war-torn (WWII) Europe. His Mother was doing her best to comfort him, all the while listening to the bombers roaring over-head, and wondering what had happened to her husband, the boy's Father. It later came to light that he had been captured by Russian soldiers, and was bound for the labor camps of Siberia. How the Father escaped, found his wife and child, and once reunited, they came to the United States, is a story for another day. Suffice it to say that, bringing only their clothes and old pots and pans, upon arrival they began to live the American Dream. (For more, read "About The Author" at the end of the book.) The American Dream abounds with opportunities and obstacles for the native-born and immigrant alike; the author has been no exception - he encountered both. Amidst the victories and defeats, he came to realize that God Almighty really was and is "up there," ever vigilant and always looking out for him. That very God can do the same for you. If you're not sure that God really is "up there," or you are going through "tough times," you need to read this book.
