How far can curiosity take you?

today I was listening to an old podcast of the TED Radio Hour from September 2014, titled James Cameron: How Far Can Curiosity Take You?  Link 
Much of what James Cameron had to say reflects my drive to explore places I've never been,  especially places only (or most easily)  accessible by water. Which is what has inspired me to restore and dream of eventually cruising our own sailboat.

"Curiosity, it's the most powerful thing you own.  Imagination is a force that can actually manifest a reality. "  -  James Cameron

40 hour dash

I spent most of Saturday and all of Sunday driving to Tehachapi,  CA and back to get a trailer for Natalie B. The trailer will need a little work before it is ready to carry the 9000 lb Alberg 30 2500 miles,  but we are now one step closer to bringing her home.
