An important note: Uncle Bill Kimbell was my inspiration to write another blog - one more time. Thank you, Uncle Bill. I had fun with it. But if this little blog was not up to par, then blame Ted. He set up a blog site months ago waiting for me to 'bite'.
This afternoon we arrived safely in our home slip. And we are so happy to be here.

Loved following your adventures. Had no idea what it took to traverse the locks! Patience! Did the Panama Canal, but that was easy compared to your experience. I’m going to miss reading your humorous tales. Glad you’re home safe and sound and heading to a favorite ice cream shop? Enjoy the colors back home. 🍁
"Unknown" ... If you see this comment, please advise name. But regardless, thank you for such a lovely 'review'. Makes it all worthwhile!
