We'll be returning to Las Vegas in a couple of days, after nearly two months of cruising about and camping. Just as when we first moved aboard Nine of Cups, what we thought we wanted initially has changed significantly from what we're now thinking. These are our current thoughts.

We can deal with a little slope, but too much slope front to back and we find ourselves sliding off or crunching our heads against the headboard. Too much side-to-side slope, and we both end up sharing the port or starboard ¼ of our full sized bed. This is just fine (perhaps even kinda nice) for a short while, but our old bodies need to re-position frequently - which is not easily accomplished when one of us is squished against the cabinet alongside the bed. Thus we'd like to be able to level Blue when his parking spot is on an incline.

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.
