These lists are really great. A father and his sons are voyaging across the
planet on a small boat and have inspired many to follow their journey. One
of our list members took it upon himself to pull all the reported positions
of Idlewilds journey together, identify them in Google Earth and share
them with us. Our thanks go out to Chris Byer for making this available to
the T&T and PUP communities. You can click on the link below for a jpg of
the starting point of the journey:

Or if you would like to retrieve a Google Earth kml file, mouse click
the link below, and use the "file save as" feature. Make certain to save
the file as a "kml" in the extension field, otherwise your browser may
change it to an xml file, as mine did. After saving the file you will be
able to double click it and if you have Google Earth installed, it will
start the program and Fly you to the track. If you highlight the
Circumnavigation link on the left side of the screen and click the "View",
"Play Tour" menu items, you will get a fly by view of the track they have
taken.

Again, thanks to Chris for taking the time to share this with our community.
