We have had an eventful 2005 so far. In January we sold our home in Mesa and moved way out into the country, to a little town called Aguila. We bought a home on an airpark called Eagle Roost. We have 5 acres of land and access to a paved runway. Go to www.eagleroost.org to see the details.

Because we have so much more room and an 80 by 60 hangar, my thoughts were to move the boat to Arizona to finish it up.

About 1 day before I was to head north to prepare the ship for transport, I ended up in the emergency ward with a pain in my side. It turned out to be pneumonia which put me down for about 8 weeks.

So needless to say we never made it to Washington to work on the ship. I have since decided not to move it south because it just got too expensive and complicated. I have made arrangements to move it to the Granville Dry Marina in Anacortes in the summer of 2006. From there the water is our highway to the world.
