Here I'll start posting a running log of this trip, and divide it
up into different segments so you can look at as much or as little as you wish.
For boaters I'll also include photos and links of various marinas and spots
along the way. I'm posting this page on my & Lisa's 13th Anniversary, on August
26, 2008. We're heading up to Port Clinton on Lake Erie today to prepare for
departure - probably Thursday morning August 28th aboard the refurbished 35'
