Boat & TrailerJoan and I are getting ready to do the second summer on our 27' boat as we try to complete the northern part of America's Great Loop.  We started last year in Traverse City, Michigan and went through the Great Lakes and the Canadian canal systems, visiting Ottawa, Montreal and Quebec City before going south to Lake Champlain and the northern Hudson River.  We stored our boat in Albany, New York for the winter.

Chesapeake Bay MapAfter visiting New York, we will trailer our boat to Baltimore, Maryland and relaunch in the Chesapeake Bay.  Our plan is to do as much of the bay as we can for about 6 weeks, and then put the boat up for sale and return home in time for the birth of our new granddaughter.  One big change from last year is that we are bring our dog, Becka with us  As we did last year, if you want to come along with us vicariously, we will keep you posted as we go along.
