    This is the first time I hear Bill doing a voiceover. Keep it up!

    I remember watching the older episodes of Delos. Brady was always getting bit by something or other. Now I can watch Calico Skies and enjoy watching Bill get bitten by various creatures.

    It is a paradise at Dry Tortugas. Me husband and I camp at Fort Jefferson every summer we take the ferry out there and stay the 3 nights and go back on the 4th day there are just not enough words to credit what a wonderful place it is. I love the history and everything about it.

    Been there a few times watching Other YT channels, but this one had the Best ✅ color so far.
    That DeHavaland Single Otter belonged to ProMech Air out of Ketchcan Alaska (at least it use to).
    They are Great bush planes and originally had radial piston engines on them like the smaller Beavers had, but now everyone is going to turbines for safety. They sound terrible to us unlike the low, slow rumble of the radials .

      Thank you so much 🙂We got our settings dialed in on our GH5 and tried to film with the best light, glad you noticed and appreciate it :)

      @@CalicoSkiesSailing yes, it was Very Easy for us to notice “IT” as it popped right out at us, a stand out difference you made it make, also the history narrative was a bit better too...✅. My husband was talking to them on the phone ☎️ in Ketchcan (PreMech Air) about something once upon a time, when they found out he had all his seaplane ratings and had flown the Twin Otters, AND lived in Floow’da, , , IF he’d be interested in taking that run out of Key West flying tourists out there... He wasn’t interested though, maybe If it was Freight, but not PAX...
      Although he has paid attention to it slightly ever since then.😎

      @@CalicoSkiesSailing that’s too generous of you Grace and Bill, no thanks to you and SV Delos for showing us that life has the other side of the coin and that people actually live on boats .. I always heard the story of people living in /on shikaras (house boats) in Kashmir, India and used to wonder how life might be. But in the 90’s there were no vlogs so we didn’t know how the life might be, but due to sailing channels like yours, sv Delos, sailing RAN, sail with the flo, adventures of an old sea dog, etc... I came to know that life can be so much fun.. I love you all.. and my love had started with @Distant shores Tv last year during pandemic
