A Detour South

The main reason for heading East this time of year was ultimately to spend the holidays with our East Coast families. So we took a detour south.

 Walking in the Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest

With a copy of the trail map in hand as well as an AllTrails map loaded on our phone, we headed out to the Methusaleh Trail, a 4.5 mile loop which would take us to the general vicinity of the gnarly old guy’s neighborhood.

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.
