Welcome!

We are making the "Great Loop" - up the east coast, through the Great Lakes and into Canada, and then down the Mississippi and around Florida. It promises to be the adventure of a lifetime! We invite you to join us through our blog.

Off we go!

Monday's the day and we're all set! The boat is in great shape and we think we are all packed. I have a freezer, a pantry of sorts and a big stash of yarn. Today started out at church, where we got a blessing from our church family and our good friends, Joe and Diane Harwell. The final bits were loaded aboard, including the bikes. Sara, Ryan, Olivia and Chris came over to have dinner on the boat tonight. We had a great time and a slightly weepy goodbye. Rebecca is down with a stomach virus, so we will see her in the morning before we leave.

The pantry.

New table cover - quilted by me!

Our new freezer... note the bread machine and the crock pot.   

Flat screen in our berth... note Chris' lobster painting.

Ryder has already staked her claim on the bed.

The new carpet.
