It's moving day. It's just kind of hard to believe we're going back to the docks this morning and
we should be docked and tucked away by before the afternoon. So I think we've got 20-25 nautical
miles to do today. It's a nice easy half day sail. Kind of bittersweet. I'm really looking forward
to having the dehumidifier back and our space heaters just to make heating and dehumidifying
really simple and yeah make the winter more comfortable. But at the same time we stayed at
the most beautiful place last night and we watched the sunset on one hand and woke up to an incredible
sunrise on the other hand and there was a full full moon last night which is still out. I can
see it this morning. The phosphorescence were just incredible and the stars and yeah it was just a
transition into the next season in our lives which is a little more a little more stationary,
a little more dormant. So bittersweet.
For collision and then now to really live you gotta die
Make this one
Dragging yourself down
Why?
Well there ain't much time left
To figure things out
Deep underneath all the laser
Your doubts
There's a heart gone out of rhythm
In despair
Held underwater
Falling for air
Breathe in
Breathe out
Hey come, come, come alive
Breathe in
Breathe out
These colors, colors
Around
You got the white knuckles
Holding on tight
Keeping your fears bottled
Up inside
Heading for collision
And then now
To really live you
Gotta die
On 9.7 knots
We're getting like a
3 knot lift
Oh that's wild
We've made it and I'm about to flip
the AC breaker on
Woohoo
I always expect it to beep or something but
there's nothing to beep so
It's on we have power baby
Let's go check
Let's see if we got light. These ones always
take a little
bit of time
Oh we have light
It's working
I'm trying to think of one else
we can plug in but to be honest
we gotta go get it
Oh
This
This is
the key
to living luxuriously
We have a fridge
Well we made it
It was an unreal
day on the water. It was beautiful
No wind so no sailing
but we were with the tides
so peaceful
Happy to be here for another winter
Yeah stoked
The cabin is a mess as
goes cabins when you're
sailing but
we'll get some food and groceries
and move in, get the van
Everything's
All our eggs are in one basket again
Almost
Fridge is cooling. We've got refrigeration
again
That's the battery charger
even though solar is keeping up just fine
The batteries are totally charged right now
