Chomping at the bit

     I'm starting to feel antsy. There is so much still to be done before we can officially leave on our adventure--and I truly mean leave, as in bye-bye ordinary life, let's get to Mexico--but I'm finding myself more and more wishing that date of departure was coming up sooner. Part of that could be because I'm really excited to actually see our boat. I admit that I'm rather jealous that Joe has already seen the boat. Pictures simply don't satisfy!

We are now boat poor!

     Well, Kyrie is officially ours after multiple delays with switching funds through accounts!  We now can post some details and pictures for everyone who has asked. (Joe is really good at all the technical details and facts, so a lot of this is his post, although I (Kristen) have added a few other bits and pieces here and there. Have fun reading!)

What's next?

     I've been hesitant to post anything since Kyrie isn't officially ours yet and I don't want to post pictures until she is. However, there is so much keeping us busy in the meantime, so there is plenty I could talk about. The house is coming along, albeit slowly. Thankfully, Joe found a carpenter/laborer whose workload has slowed down considerably and is looking for work. Working together, the two of them should be able to get the addition done in the next month or so. That fits in our timeline rather nicely.
     What is our timeline? Maybe it's time to reveal our grand plan, as it stands right now.
