Wow, just stumbled upon this video on the ol’ Internet today, very cool project and video! This guy, Kevin Gallagher walked the entire 2200 mile Appalachian Trail and took 5 photos along every unique section to show the entire trail in a a short video. It took 6 months! More info on him and his project at the links below. The East coast sure looks different than the West coast, way more deciduous trees is the first thing I notice. I’d love to hike this trail someday, but for now it’s going on the blog as a reminder…

This is a somewhat random post but it is sort of related to small shelters and my interest in boating and all things on the water.

Did you know there is a country called Sealand? I didn’t either but it’s part of the true story of pirate radio of the coast of England. A abandon WWII radar platform has been taken over my pirates and is now it’s own country.

Ephemerisle – I think this is like Burning man on the water. Stick with the video for a minute, it’s gets a lot better after the guy stops talking at the podium.
