Veteran Owned Charters

 So here we sit.. Back at a Marina we both love and hate... Back where we lost our canvas, solar panels and freedom. Back to being stuck in a beautiful place that holds us captive from our goal! Back to where we never wanted to be.  Thanks to Geoff and his sane perspective we filed our insurance claim. Its funny how horrible I feel when doing nothing wrong.  We all know that feeling when we go through customs or a Police boat/car pulls up.  Somehow there is instant panic in the exact moment we should feel safe and protected. (Yes Geoff was Military and my Family is OPP) Doesn't change a thing BUT remind me just how broken we are as a society.  Needless to say....I feel guilty after 4 days floating without power....and without a response from insurance for pushing for follow up. For being the squeaky wheel.  For the record this is the EXACT reason I HATED the idea of filling another claim.  Somehow through ZERO fault of our own, I have been made to feel...

Hello again our dear friends, Not sure who has missed us, or who has checked in but here we are again. We will see how long it lasts but for now....We are here. Just like anyone and any tasks, we are living moment by moment and focusing our energy on what feels right. This trip has been a journey, to say the very least.   Both in miles our dear boat has safely guided us through to those that are now branded into our souls. Memories we will cherish, and those that we are happy to say we survived. All in all, tis life.   No matter WHAT you are doing....life will happen. Things you see on social media will allow you to use up all your positive energy glorifying someone else's life at the cost of your own. Such a strange creature we are. After working so long with so many different animals, humans are by far the ones I will never understand. We pride ourselves on being this superior creature, untouched by any other species, and yet with it comes the cost of being in th...
