WELCOME

Between the Devil and the Deep is an old sailor's saying indicating the space between the bulwork and outswide of the hull. One had to hang over to tar and caulk it. Today its like being between a rock and a hard place.

MY FIRST ATTEMPT AT BLOGGING

This is my first attempt at creating a blog, and I am having a tough time trying to get it correct. My goal is to meet others with the same interests and have conversations (pro and con) about them. My main interests, beside religion, are writing, sailing – especially cruising, sea shanties and songs, and prison chaplaincy. (You can add the Woodstock Rock Festival to the list as I was chaplain there.) I have written a book of Sea Songs, The Bitterend Song Book, that goes with a tape. Yes, I said tape. CD’s were not invented when I wrote the book, but I have tried to make CD’s from the tape. They are not to good but OK, I think. I have also written a Cruising Prayer Book. If I can figure out how to do it, I will place what I have left up for sale. I have a new book, Between the Devil and the Deep…: Memoirs of a Maverick Priest, coming out soon. I let you know when it is ready. Please sign in as a FOLLOWER, which will help me reach you. I hope to hear from you soon.
