New Wrinkle

We're in AuGres, Michigan getting "Adirondack" ready for the big journey. This includes cleaning, provisioning, testing, fixing things and installing the new bike rack and scuba tank rack. We hope to get going on Saturday where we'll stage at Harrisville. But that's not all that interesting.

What has really got us thinking is a possible crew addition. Westin Marne, the guy who modeled for the cake at our party, showed up yesterday and wants to go along. He has a fairly impressive resume, having piloted for some guy named Robert Wagner and a cruise ship company in the Mediterranean. Sally is pretty excited about it, thinking that extra hands will be really handy in the locks. He seems nice, but I'm having reservations. Take a look at his photo. If you ever saw this guy on a wanted poster in a post office, let us know.
