We closed the door on the Pod on May 26 and closed on the
house that day as well. Luckily, we could
stay in town a few more days to finish up some business and visit with friends. Thanks to Kelly and Seana for letting us stay
in Wash Park, and the Huffmans for the spare room in RiNo. It was fun to be metropolitan for a few days!
On our way to North Carolina we swung by Florida for a day to
check on the progress of the boat.
Rockhopper is currently at the manufacturer’s facility having work
done. Clearly, she didn’t make it into
the water by June 1, but we are hoping we’ll be ready for the big splash in
July. Once she is in the water, we’ll
have a couple of weeks of work and preparations until we can get underway
and start making our way north.

We’ll be dropping in on the folks in Florida next week to
see how things are progressing. Until
then, we are staying with family (thanks Lori and Chuck!), spending a lot of
time with Dad, and trying to see our NC friends as much as possible while we
are here and homeless.
