That was one of the great things about going to a builders meet. I got to meet both AA and CapeMan and a number of others. If you get the chance to make a meeting it is well worth the effort.

The camping and fishing gear are loaded on top of the car and we head out Wed morning for a night in Key West. Have a room reserved in Deadhorse Alaska for June 21-23 and plan on getting home in October. I'll post some key moments here as we go ala Glossieback and his annual sailing
Congratulations!
