Tomorrow morning will be our last bit of cell serv Tomorrow morning will be our last bit of cell service before being officially “out at sea” for the next month. I love all the FaceTimes and calls and texts from loved ones and family. Spirits are high, onward we sail.
It started as an idea a few years back. More casua It started as an idea a few years back. More casual conversation about “would a bigger sail be something you’re interested in” than making true plans. I’ve found a lot of joy in saying yes. I’ll commit to big things, to people, to life. Monday morning we depart for a true unknown. No land in sight, weeks on end. It will be one of the most difficult and I’m certain most rewarding thing that I’ve ever done. Thanks for taking some photos of Eric and I @whitwhitehouse
“Once in a lifetime.” That’s what I keep hea “Once in a lifetime.” That’s what I keep hearing about this trip. It’s a major undertaking no doubt, but I have a hard time thinking that there’s anything that’s worth doing once that I wouldn’t want to do again. Check back in in a month and a half and see if I still feel the same way! —— @backcountry has been supporting my odd ideas for adventure for years now, and actually they are the reason that @sonofaboat and I first met. ——- Sailing across an ocean is a bit gear intensive, as you might imagine. From extreme waterproof gear, headlamps, knives, camping stoves to sleeping bags. One of the best things we bought for this trip were our two new lounge chairs, aka Crazy Creeks.

@scratchmybaklund is a hearty soul. While we haven @scratchmybaklund is a hearty soul. While we haven’t know one another that long, the conversations have been deep, tattoos have been traded, and more than a few cold beverages have been shared. Hope your fishing season is going well and looking forward to seeing you back in Bend Stephen.

I owe a lot of my outdoors spirit to my dad. From I owe a lot of my outdoors spirit to my dad. From the time I could walk, we spent time together outdoors, from fishing at the river down the road, appreciating the bounty of the earth bowhunting, to longer trips up to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Happy Father’s Day padre.
We’ve all read the famous quote “Twenty years We’ve all read the famous quote “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” By H. Jackson Brown Jr. In just over a week @sonofaboat and I will be setting sail, literally, bound for Hawaii. It’s a flood of emotions, but mostly excitement, one of those trips that we hope will shape the mind and soul for the rest of life.
