Greetings! It’s Maria (again), starting yet another blog. But this one has a tightly focused purpose: it’ll make it possible for you to join me — virtually, at least — on My Great Loop Adventure.
Want the backstory? Here are two posts from my personal blog that’ll explain how I got to where I am now, on May 10, 2021, as I make arrangements to join a crew on a leg of the Great Loop from New York City to Chicago starting in August.
- A Fateful Trip to Lopez Island takes you back to 2017, when I first started thinking about a boat that I could explore with. There’s a lot of personal relationship stuff in there, too — try to ignore that — and you’ll learn where I rode on my first trawler style boat and how excited it made me about boating.
- The Great Loop is where I explain to readers what the Great Loop is and why I want to do it.
I’ll try to share new posts here each time there’s a development in my Great Loop Adventure and will, of course, blog all related journeys I make. I hope you’ll follow along.
And if you’ve already done all or part of the Great Loop, don’t be a stranger! I’m always interested in tips or advice.
