We Leave Today . . .

. . . for Macedon, NY, the port on the Erie Canal where our boat is docked. We'll make some adjustments to the engine, stow our gear, do a shakedown cruise while towing our dinghy (more on THAT unusual boat later!), and smash a bottle of champagne on the bow. Then, on June 1, we cruise away!

You can read a story about our voyage on Penn State Live.

  2. I have you in my RSS feed in OSX mail -- this is so cool and I heard the piece the other morning on WPSU. I've shared with all our science teachers -- we'll be as excited as one can be without being there. Wishing you smooth travels!

  5. Have a great trip! Just a year ago I left from Macedon for a week on the Erie Canal in a boat like the Dragonfly. what a wonderful way to travel.
