LOVE the pictures!!! Thanks so much!!!
Think I saw Don and Kerry getting back from the trip – they live across from us.
Thanks again for the great pictures!
The scenery pictures are great – loved the rocks and cliffs at Covered Portage! I love Kerry and the food pictures! Also, everyone looks great in the group pictures.
One of my favorite pictures is you taking a nap and the look on the guy’s face at Tamarac (blue shirt with arm around Don).
Happy Safe Sailing!
The pictures bring back a lot of great memories from 2005. Full sails Kip !
