Fogo Island - A Great Auk & One Corner of the Flat Earth

The reward at the end of the trail was a 6.5’ (2m) tall cast-bronze statue of a great auk by American artist Todd McGrain. The great auk, a flightless bird that became extinct in the mid-19th century, used to thrive on these North Atlantic rocky shores.

Welcome to the Kenai Peninsula -2

Welcome to the Kenai Peninsula -2

It lasted only a minute or two and we never knew when or where it would occur again, but the seabirds all knew. When we saw them circling and the water began to roil, we focused on that area and sure enough another bubble-netting event would occur.

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.
