Public Appearance 10/8! Come on down to REI!

Hey everybody!

If you’re looking for an opportunity to get an overview of our So Many Beaches adventures in person, you’re in luck!

Yours truly will be hosting a travel class, in partnership with REI and Hostelling International, about our travels in Central America and the Caribbean, focusing on our mid-career break.

It’s this Tuesday, October 8th from 6:30-8pm. Spots are filling up fast (for real!). So reserve your space today!

We look forward to meeting all y’all curious cats and hearing about your upcoming adventures! See ya Wednesday!

L & D

(everyone’s favorite sailor aboard Mother Jones, Mr. K, won’t be joining us on Wednesday. Alas, he has a big job that night: keeping the cushions down at home)

Extra, Extra!

In case you missed it, we were recently featured in the Austin American Statesman in the lifestyle section!1-DandL Statesman I’m working on getting the story (appropriately) available to all y’all who may not have a Statesman account (it’s behind a paywall). But, in case you do have an account, or are interested enough to spring $.99 for a day-pass, here’s the link to the story.

I can’t thank the author, Helen Anders, enough for making this a great experience for us to participate in – you’re welcome aboard, anytime Helen!

Kemah’s Korner!

In case you missed it on our Facebook or Twitter pages, this little blog got a whole new section featuring a whole lotta FAQs answered about living with a sweet, salty dog aboard:

It’s Kemah’s Korner, y’all!

And, it’s awesome (if I do say so ma’self).

So far, info about Kemah’s life aboard S/V Mother Jones has been featured on The Monkey’s Fist. *AND*, based on yesterday’s post, Kemah’s been invited to join a spread of cruising dogs in Practical Sailor magazine’s upcoming issue (I’ll post that once it’s up in a few weeks).

Exciting, huh!?!

**update: Kemah’s a centerfold! Check out Practical Sailor’s article on “Canine Crew” (featuring Mr. K) here.**
