Untied The Lines!

We moved aboard full time April 28th, from our tiny apartment in Delaware OH.   We spent the month of May prepping the boat for our trip.  On May 31st, we untied the lines and headed East.  We just did a short hop to Vermilion OH for one night.   

The next morning, we hopped over to Cleveland where we visited the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and of course we couldn't pass up the opportunity to visit the casino!  

This morning we headed out for a 21-hour cruise to Buffalo, NY.  We are trying to make it there before the wind picks up on Saturday.  Today the lake is as smooth as glass! 

This will be Roxie's first overnight run and we have laid out the potty grass!  We hope she figures out that it's her new potty spot!  As you can see she is not pleased! Lol!
