Ready to start our adventure

As of June 10, 2013 Carlos will  "officially" retire.  We will stay on the island of Kodiak, Alaska however, since the ferry to transport us to the mainland won't arrive until the end of the week. It seems that the Tustemena Ferry was having repairs and won't be ready to come back until July.  Instead, we will catch a ride on the Kennicott Ferry.  It doesn't travel as often but it has a vacancy for us. This is lucky since all the departing Coast Guard families are also leaving about the same time.

Thankfully, our landlord has allowed us to say in our apartment for the few extra days before the new tenants arrive.  We will be spending a lot of time together in very close quarters over the next few months. This will truly be a test of how we will be able to deal with both of us not working (for pay).

More later as our journey continues.
