Thanks to all of you for your feedback on our blogs, either via email, in person or with the comments field. The main reason we've kept the blog is to have one place where our friends and family can see photos, track our progress and be part of our sailing adventure. We also have enjoyed being accountable to the blog, and collecting an archive that will be a great travel diary for ourselves.
With that in mind, we've decided that ShindigSailing.com will be on Holiday until we return to La Paz next Fall. If you'd like to keep in touch with us, you can find Rob on Facebook.
BTW, if you are driving down to La Paz sometime between mid-September - early October, let us know. Rob is looking to drive down with some boat parts that would be difficult to fly down with.
Our summer calendar is pretty full with travels to Southern and Northern California, Boston, Vermont, Montreal, Park City and the San Joaquin Delta. Photos below are from the first "on land Shindig" with Rob's family in Canyon Lake.
