Reflections of 5 Months to Alaska

Our "Adventure of a Lifetime" has come to a momentary pause. We have been fortunate that the weather has been relatively good, the people we have met have been extremely friendly and our family and friends have been so supportive of our travels.

Dave & Penny and Wayne & Cathy have been the best travelling companions and hopefully they will lead future expeditions of Alaska Bound boats! To you, we thank for the extra 10 lbs. of travel belly! The meals were marvelous, the wine and card playing something we looked forward to everyday, dinner conversations were always stimulating and the comfort of knowing that in any emergency, you had our backs covered! Had it not been for your companionship and willingness to "push the envelope" in where we travelled to and how we did it, the accounting of our trip would not have been nearly as interesting!

Thank you to everyone for their encouragements and well wishes. I will be continuing to update the blog with charts, video, waypoints, photographs and other information to the places we have visited. The aim is to take this blog framework, add more text, photographs and history and then to go to print! Check back in a few weeks and you will see some more interesting things on our blog!
