LOVEly day exploring Philadelphia with Drew and Grace - from Independence Hall to Dilworth Park; Philadelphia Museum of Art to Penn's Landing. Click here for photos.
We started blogging in 2007 to document a year-long family sailing adventure. Upon returning to our home base in Portland, Oregon, in 2008, our adventures and blogging continued. Sri Lanka and Malta took center stage in 2018-2020. We were bicoastal (OR/PA) in 2020-2022, then back together in the Pacific NW until 2025, when MN was added to our location list.

Chesapeake Weekend
Drew and Grace are visiting from the West Coast, so we spent the weekend exploring the Upper Chesapeake, from Havre de Grace to Rock Hall, MD. Our evening in Rock Hall checked all the boxes for sailing on the bay - good wind, a scenic anchorage, delicious crabs, a beautiful sunset, and great company. Click here for photos, including a throw-back to the last time we enjoyed Chesapeake Bay crabs - in 2007 during our sailing trip aboard Jubilee.
Meanwhile back in Oregon... Jake and Emily are dog-sitting for Fig and getting Jake settled in his new apartment. Click here for photos.
Prior to Drew's and Grace's arrival, we made our first visit to Philadelphia's Woodmere Museum - a close-to-home gallery showcasing Philadelphia artists. Click here for photos.
