Sam--

THANKS! This is exactly what I've been thinking of, and dreaming about.
Don't you think it'd be fun for me to take my ten year old son on a ship
like that, to Europe? What an experience for both of us. A true adventure.

Austin--

I did notice that! ;-) We haven't had a decent beach around here in ages!
There are very funny posters showing the Flatirons in Boulder with a nice
beach and ocean sidled up next to them ... titled "Boulder, California." Oh
well.

Seriously, though, I was asking if anyone knows of a freight/shipping
company that will take on passengers. I think that would be great fun to
take a trip that way ... I know it used to be possible in "the olden days"
but now ... ???

Er, Kit.  I know you're kind of caught up in the mountains there...but if
you didn't notice, Colorado is land locked.  You probably won't find many
sea ports too near.
