Don't go away just yet!! Keep comming back. I intend to keep updating the site for quite some time to come. There are at least 15 or 20 questions that people have asked over the summer that I need to research and well over 6 gigabytes of pictures...

Capsize!!!! I thought this was going to be a mainly ceremonial crossing to the finish, but, alas, I capsized my boat!! OK, it's not what you're thinking, I wasn't even in the boat at the time. I was in my tent sleeping. We came up to the island...

Karen and I left Halifax Island and checked out a private island. I heard it's for sale for just $750,000. We decided to pass and went on to Cross Island. The jagged cliffs go one for several miles and about halfway, there is a sea cave. We got there...

Today started out a little rough. The wind was blowing hard enough that small craft warnings were posted. We decided to wait for the wind to calm down a little. I was glad we did because we had a 3 mile crossing to do and when we did go, the wind was...

Karen got to Jonesport right on time. We decided to go exploring Beals and Great Wass Islands for a little while. There was also a nice Geocache I wanted to show her. The cache owner just happened to be there and offered to drive us home from Machias...

The main goal for today was to stay out of the way of a storm. It wasn't that hard as there is still no sign of any kind of a storm. Still, the day started out with fog as thick as ever. But, it started to burn off just as the tide came up. No sooner...

I started the day by walking around the island. The fog was quite thick and I wanted to wait for the tide to come up a bit. The fog made for some very interesting scenery. Later, I met a Geocaching friend, Starzz, from Campobello Island, at Roque Bluffs...

I met a group of kayakers from Tulsa, OK today. I noticed that they had Coleman gas and asked if I could buy some. They were ending their trip, so the not only gave my gas but also breakfast, and food to last well into next week! Then, I paddled over...

Today started out a bit poorly. The stove has been running badly, and is now completely out of gas. The gps would not turn on, so I tried to bend the contacts to make a better connection. Bad idea! The contact snapped off! Well, it sure is a good day...

I had ever intention of moving to another island today, but when I got up, it was foggy. I started reading a book, and the Day was over before I knew it. The sunset was spectacular tonight and much drier air is in place soon tomorrow will see me on another...

This morning was bright and beautifull, so, I headed over to Great Waas Island to explore the Nature Conservancy trails. I hiked the Little Cape Point Trail through open ledges of Jack Pine and through beautifull heaths, or raised bogs. I hoped to see...

Fog! I don't think the fog has let up even a little all day. It's a great day to curl up and read a book. That's just what I did, except for a walk around the island at lunch. Hopefully, the weather will be getting better. Until then, I'm...

Today was a good day to get ready for a few rainy days. I don't think they will all be wash out days, but I'm in a great place to just hang out and watch it all go by. I'm back on Steven's Island and will stay a couple of days. I hope...

I have been hoping to go to Campobello Island in Canada ever since the start of the trip. And there is still time, but, the weather for the next few days will not allow an attempt. Today, I went to Halifax Island to check out the camping there. The site...

It was a little hard to leave Steven's Island as it is one of the nicest camping islands, but, the thought of a hot shower and getting resupplied was quite an inspiration. I made my way to the the town of Jonesport and their town campground. Jonesport...
