Bend Me, Shape Me..........
Some significant new additions to the growing pile of gear for our Loop. Our friend Dan made us a screaming deal on two Dehon folding bikes, complete with cases.

We'll be able to stow these onboard for ground transportation ("and exercise!" says Kathleen) while in port. We'll be stylin' in Walmart parking lots in 12 states! Thanks, Dan!*

A Sharp Knife Is A Sailor's Best Friend
Found this little gem (2 of them) on Amazon. Perfect for that rare but scary situation when a mooring line hangs up in a lock as the water rises or falls. (With 250+ locks between us and the end of our Loop, the probability increases.) This baby fits in your pocket, has a very sharp serrated edge, is easy to open and close, and has no point to stab ourselves with. And it FLOATS! All for $15/ea. What's not to like?
