home at cape lookout
October 14 – 16, 2012 Waking up in Cape Lookout gave us a coming home type feel. The land that surrounded us was nothing but low sand dunes, and the air was warm and humid. There was almost a tropical feeling which gave us a glimpse of future cruising days to come. After being so … Continue reading

eastern egg rock & trouble
By 0730 we had departed Monhegan Island and were headed for Eastern Egg Rock. We let the kids continue to sleep, and we figured we would wake them once we’d found the puffins. As we neared the tiny, rocky island, Wil was at the helm and I was trying to see if there were puffins … Continue reading
