Welcome!


Sandy and I are fortunate to have been able to retire early in 1999. This site is about some of our experiences since that time with a few other items thrown in that we think might interest folks.

Our travel sections include:

  • A trip around the world through New Zealand, Australia and Dubai,
  • Sailing our 34 foot sailboat down the Intracoastal Waterway from the Chesapeake Bay to Florida, wintering in The Bahamas, and
  • Camping trips including one across the U.S., one to Alaska and another to Newfoundland.

Other sections talk about our love of cross country skiing and involvement with the Kick ‘n Gliders Nordic Ski Club of Harrisburg, PA, my great grandfather’s boat trip up and down the northeast U.S. rivers and canals in 1910, details about our beloved sailboat, Whistwind and a success story about my bout with neck cancer.

In more recent years I’ve taken to making videos using photos and video clips to illustrate our adventures and other things that we value or that interest us. Links to the videos are included in this website.

We hope you enjoy the site!

Bill & Sandy Stine
