During the summer of 2007, the sailing vessel Cloud Nine completed the transit of the fabled NW Passage, an amazing 6640 miles in 73 days. This blog contains the entire story of the expedition.

Twenty Years, Twenty Stories
It has taken well over a year to put together, but the first retrospective exhibit of my 22 years of photography is now complete and finishing it's first run at the Pearson Lakes Art Center in Okoboji, Iowa. We had 400 people there for the opening night and it has stayed very busy throughout the showing. The interactive exhibit, which includes photography, journal entries, and ipod stories, weaves together a series of adventures, forming a larger storyboard of life, travels, and challenges. Look for the exhibit traveling around Iowa through 2007-2008. Schedules will be available through the Lakes Art Center. Use the link on the website. Thanks to everyone who has helped with this amazing project.

Looks like Cloud Nine is about 350 or 400 miles away from Halifax in the middle of the Atlantic. Thanks to all you amatuer radio operators of the APRS database for helping us keep our eyes on our beloved prizes. Thanks to all who experienced David's 20 year retropect exhibition. It will continue to progress with the progression of life. See all the images at www.lakesart.org. MORE TO COME.
PLEASE LOOK SOON IN DAVID'S GALLERY WINDOW FOR A PLOT MAP OF HIS PROGRESS. THIS MAP SHOULD BE UP WITHIN A WEEK OR SO, AND FOLLOW HIS TRANSIT ATTEMPT, HOPEFULLY TO A SUCCESSFUL CONCLUSION. GOOD WIND AND GOD SPEED DAVID.

Hi Dave & Crew, We love the 21st century aspect of being able to vicariously follow your journey sitting here in 80 deg weather as you approach weeks of rain and sleet and gales. Lon's threatening to dig out his ham radio!
Love, Lon & Susie
