It's been 2 months since last I wrote a blog! And it's now been 1 year since becoming....CLODS (Cruisers Living On Dirt) What a busy year it has been around here and what a beautiful spring it has been! We have been working really hard on the house and doing the finishing touches on the inside are such fun! Walls are painted, Jo & Jerry came for a week and knocked out the tile floor in the kitchen and we got all of the cabinets stained and sealed. Working feverishly on tiling and flooring of the bathrooms and having the kitchen countertops installed have been the latest projects. Our goal is a fully operational kitchen and bathroom in the addtion...by July 1st! By golly, I think we will make it!!!
Triple Stars is still on stilts, as our attempt to get her launched last week was thwarted by our prop being reinstalled...BACKWARDS...forward went reverse...reverse went forward...opps! Anyway, with any luck the boatyard has gotten it corrected and we are set to launch 1pm on Tuesday the 15th almost 8 months out of the water... Be sure to check out our photo gallery for more current pictures.
We were so happy to greet John, Judy & Janna Morris...good friends from "home town" in Texas as they visited Maine, Hupper Island and us for their 1st time "DownEast" A very short 24 hour visit but a fun one! We are also anxiously awaiting a visit from our cruising buddies, Terri & Lyman. as they travel all the way from the Caribbean aboard sans cles.
