New year, 48 months until we leave, new crew!

Happy 2017!
Here we sit in St Augustine FL, our prison for 48 more months.
We have been here 3 years now, never thought it would take us 7 years in total to leave. Here is the scoop thou, if we finish this 48 month stretch, we will be leaving with enough resources To stay out between 10 and 40 years. Yes, we could be out, for 40 years!!!!

Welcome Amelia to the crew of Union Pacific!

One upset baby at the one month point. She will make a great member of the crew and will be staying for about 18 years :P  We are blessed to have her after our losses that came before her.

One piece of bad news is we lost a crew member, Velma.

She is going to be missed. She was put to sleep in late 2016.
I personally miss her very much, she was my cuddle dog, my soft loving dog.

Tons of projects are underway. Here is the current list of to be started
Rigging - needs a complete rerig.
Keel - needs repair on the bottom from grounding on soft soil
Thru-hulls - remove them, most likely replace only about 3, the rest will be gone.
Generator - finish sound shield, repair the starting solenoid.

The ones that need finishing:
Need to install another new AC unit. This time we got the best money could buy.
kitchen - needs redone, need wood veneer, and to remove a sink.
Running rigging - just needs finishing.



So that's it for now. Not many updates coming to this blog, again check out youtube out at one world expeditions
