J made a comment on our last post that I wanted to share. I didn't want it to be missed ;)

I discovered yesterday that inhaling paint fumes for almost 14 hours straight makes one a bit loopy.
Yes, it's been a long road, and yes there's more ahead, but there's been a lot of progress this winter that is bringing us closer to the realization of a dream. We work hard now so, as Tom Sawyer reminds us, twenty years from now we will not be disappointed by the things we didn't do. In a few short years we will throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in our sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
Another week or so and this portion of our refit will be complete (or close enough to get her home). There's still plenty of refitting to do over the next three years, but those portions should be considerably less hectic...until the last 3-6 months. I think Kel is still dreading her first major provisioning :)
