We are now slightly more than 5/6th done with our "Great Loop" cruise,
yesterday we transited the LAST lock we will go thru. We're on the
familiar East Coast ICW and headed north (against the flow of
traffic).

Unfortunately we have family reasons to hurry home, or it would be
very pleasant to cruise this last bit of our Loop slowly & lazily.
Tonight we are anchored near an island in the Indian River just south
of Cape Canaveral; at 3 pm this afternoon we saw the shuttle launch.

We have taken the time along the way to stop & visit some good
friends, it is really nice to spend time with people you have gotten
to know over the years. I hope that more of you will stop by our
home... or maybe join us on a short cruise...

Sincerely
Doug King
