Last week the crew here at Port Annapolis Marina backed her into the slings and put her on the hard. Then we rented a car and spent two days getting our car back from Brunswick. We drove over the Governor Harry Nice Memorial Bridge that we had sailed under last spring when we went to Washington DC.
For the last week we've been cleaning out lockers, packing boxes, touching up varnish, and putting lots of stuff on the free-cycle table.
Hopefully by Friday we should be ready to head home. We've decided to take a northern route, up through Pennsylvania, New York, Niagara Falls, and Canada for a bit. Then back down to Chicago and South Dakota, and west on I90 to who knows where.
We might not be "afloat" any more, but the adventures will continue, so please stay tuned.

Update the blog name to “Fortunes Aground”, and bob’s your uncle!
I was hoping to see Maine on your list of possible stops along the road. If you find you drift farther east than you expected, let us know - dinner on us!
Have a fine trip.
Looking forward to hearing about your land yacht adventure.
Thanks for the offer Keith, but even with the tacking, we really are headed west.
I really like the Fortunes Aground idea....
Laura,
Sad to see you selling a boat you and Malcom put so much time and energy into, but I know how plans can change. I looked at the photos on yachtworld.com and I feel like a lot of the "projects" that you guys undertook in 2014-15 we were there to see in Stockton. I especially remember the enormous task of hauling out the old stove and lowering in the new one, but you guys always pulled it off.
Please keep us in mind if you are visiting either San Francisco (our home) or Southern Maine (our second home).

Thank you for the kind words Dave. We were in Maine the summer of 2017 and absolutely loved it. We mainly rambled around Penobscot Bay. Too bad we didn't know you were there.
I'll email you if we get over to San Francisco anytime soon.
