 So...we had a fabulous sendoff with our Greyhawk buddies...lots of laughs, hugs, and a few tears as we get ready to head out on our epic adventure.  Food was fabulous and plentiful ( getting us ready for the cruise - yikes) , shared a few cocktails and had a wonderful toast to send us off on our journey....



See you all in September

See you when the summers through

Here we are, saying goodbye at the pier

We'll have a good time but remember
