Chloride Arizona - A Living Ghost Town

Quirky, quaint, charming… an apt description for the old mining town now a ‘living ghost town’ of Chloride, Arizona.

Heading to the Eastern Sierras

September 05, 2025/ Marcie
  Heading to the Eastern Sierras

The land flattened out a bit at Lee Flats and Joshua trees appeared. In the distance, the ragged, sawtooth peaks of the majestic Sierras popped into view, patches of snow visible on the highest peaks.

Walking the Acastus Trail & McWilliams Campground

August 29, 2025/ Marcie
Walking the Acastus Trail & McWilliams Campground

We’d noticed the Acastus Trail when we visited the Spring Mountains Visitor Center a few weeks before, and since we were feeling particularly lazy, an easy trail sounded ideal to get us off our duffs without overdoing it.

Just a Little Further

Hi there and welcome to Just A Little Further!

We are David and Marcie Lynn and we've lived aboard our Liberty 458 cutter-rigged sailboat since 2000.

What began as an urge to travel slowly and economically at our own pace ended up an adventure of a lifetime.  

Well, here we are ... nearly 90,000 miles under the keel, 5 continents, 5 Great Southern Capes, 36 countries and almost two decades later, still taking one passage at a time and going just a little further.
