HOW TO NAVIGATE THIS BLOG:


We enjoy sharing our lifestyle with our family, friends, and others. So COME ON OUT and "let's get on with it". You only have an opportunity to live once. For those of you who do not choose to get away, feel free to travel vicariously via this blog.

This is primarily a blog of photographs, of our travels. Our blogging time is limited by our activities, so we figure a photograph is worth a thousand words. You may click on the photos to enlarge them.

There is only one Post per page. You can access earlier posts by clicking on the link below and to the right, or by going to the "archive" which is found below the current post.

The "Relevant Links" will take you to sites showing our current location, the weather conditions that we are experiencing, some of our favorite ports of call, and information related to our boat. When using the SPOT link, to see where we are, click on "satellite" tab to get a photo of the area (takes a while to load).

If you must have more then you may also follow the links to our "Earlier Blogs".

Enjoy

Back in the U.S.A.

The sun rises over American waters during our passage back to Maine:

 
Looking aft from under the shelter of the dodger where we can keep track of the GPS, radar, & our faithful Monitor self steering device:

 
After a good night sleep, feeling good about nearing the end of our passage :

 
The first fishing boat that we actually saw --- all the others had been only blips on the radar:


Mt. Desert Rock:


Our first sight of land:


Great Duck Island with Mount Desert Island behind it: 




The light at the south end of Great Duck Island:


With our feet firmly ashore at Southwest Harbor, (at Beal's - our favorite lobster dock), we could not help but appreciate the beautiful flowers to be seen everywhere:
