I know some on here would love to know what the bumfuzzle guys are up to and enjoy their antics and adventures.

After driving a car in a road race and then touring the world in a VW bus. The Bumfuzzles have a child and now gotten themselves another boat late last year and are now heading out to sea again.

I figured you'd guys would enjoy the spectacle.

For anyone who has not read the blog, I highly recommend it.

It's really well written and documented. Prepare to be drawn in and keep three days worth of food close by - it's really addicting since it's so well written.

I've finished reading their blog from their maiden in Miami to New Zeeland which occurred over 2 years - I have lots more to read. It's Awesome!!

I know there were some haters dissin' them for their lack of knowledge and forethought but it makes for some great adventures!!

One question I have been seriously struggling with, and admit it's none of my business, but where they heck did they get all the money? It seems limitless. I thought it mentioned early in the blog that one of them made some good $$$ in the stock market or something. Running some REALLY rough numbers it looks like they have spent close to $600,000 - $700,000 from the start of their trip to current day.

Did I miss it?

I suspect, like many of my friends, they may be "Trustafarians"... Never know for sure though...

Its probably against the law but I wonder if Pat would manage a fund put together by bumfuzzle followers. He couldn't do any worst than my 401k managers.
