The Crew

Last summer I yearned to return to Maine. As I drove around town doing errands, I would listen to Glenn Yarbourgh singing "If I Were A Sailor" and "Leviathan"! I was back in Maine again if only in my mind!

It was the same way with Al and this past winter found us planning for our next cruise. We decided to plan a summer cruise to Maine and beyond! Since Al is now retired from work at Electric Boat, he has the time to do it! What a blessing!

This time we plan to cruise up the Saint John River through the Reversing Falls (which sounds ominous) and go exploring in some of the many lakes off the River. In other words, we plan to cruise to Canada...the furthest we have cruised yet.

We dared to hope that Taylour would want to go with us again and we invited him. He said, yes! It would be an opportunity that he might not have again.

I'm looking forward to keeping this journal of our trip. I'll let Cap'n Al add comments where appropriate (and designated by italics). If you have comments about the writing, please contact me. After the trip, Cap'n Al will have the fun of turning this into a web page and adding pictures. Please send comments about the web pages to him. Either way, we look forward to your comments.

So here we are back again. It feels so right. So, just select a link below and jump right in!
