Desert

For many of the birthday desserts on this trip, we would have a series of fruits. Cherries, plumbs, raspberries, currents, and grapes were the main desserts on this trip. They were of delicious quality, and were extremely popular among the crew. We would never have any leftovers whatsoever, though of course we saved some for our Seaman, who happily chomped them down.

Great Falls

We just approached a series of amazing
waterfalls while in Montana, which is 
both good and bad. The good thing is 
that they are probably the most 
beautiful things I've seen so far on this 
trip. With the huge panorama of 
mountains alongside, they are even 
better. The thing is, we have to find a 
way to this keelboat around them, 
which can be quite tricky. Sure enough 
we got around, slowly but surely.

Sorry

I didn't mean to call the last blog "The Daily Progress"

The Daily Progress


These are copies of the peace medals we handed out during our trip across America. We were given a bunch of them to hand out by the people at Thomas Jefferson's house. We gave them to all the people we met along the trail that brought peace among us. 
When Lewis and Clark traveled across America they gave these mostly to the Indians to grant peace and stay friends.  This way they could show they meant no harm to the Indians.
