In spite of the modern gizmos available to these young adventurers, they are still awesome characters. Great stories.

Sunderland says on her blog that she didn't get to see the cape because she was some 50 to 60 miles offshore as she crossed from the Pacific Ocean into the Atlantic.

Does this really count?

Aren't there two "correct" ways to do it?

Kay Cottee: Fairweather option: The Horn towering near, large and clear.

Jessica Wartson: Foulweather option: Wind, waves, the Horn looming barely visible out of the mist and rain.

"It's somewhere up way to the north" seems kinda flat.

In case you haven’t heard, we have congressional elections coming up this fall and primaries starting next month. Patriotic conservatives need to be focusing on taking back Congress.
