Ah! New Bottom Paint

We just repainted the bottom, finally switching from the dull-but-functional black to bright and flashy and hopefully also functional red.

Where Does Your Travel Bug Come From?

23 April 2013 | Boston, MA
I read it somewhere that some cruisers are sailors that become travelers, and some cruisers are travelers that become sailors. I would have to put myself in the latter category from way back. This is a trailer my dad built from an old bread truck. He fitted it out for camping with a family of eight - plus friends who often came along. A (special early mother's day) salute to my mom for traveling with six kids, including a newborn (my sister's crib once floated in our flooded tent), a physically challenged son in a wheelchair, and moody teenagers and their friends, and all the rest. I have so much respect for all those parents cruising with kids.
