The One With Light & Salty’s Third Gulf Crossing
Admittedly, this post started out as a quick social media post about our Gulf crossing. When I ran out of characters, I realized it probably deserved it’s own blog update. I’m cringing because I haven’t posted about our trip down the rivers yet, which means this post comes chronologically out of order. But I’m going…
Read MoreThe One With Long Days and a Short Month
I’m already second guessing my title. I just realized for everyone in the Northern Hemisphere, June is literally a short(er) month with long days. My title was meant to be more abstract. Surely you’ve heard the expression, “the days are long, but the years are short”? It’s most often used to describe parenting young kids.…
Read MoreThe One From PCB
Summarizing our time in Panama City Beach, Florida (aka PCB) has been hanging over my head for a while now. It’s overwhelming to think of how much changed, both before our arrival and during our time docked at Bay Point. There’s a big part of me that is ready to move on and not do…
Read MoreThe One About Looperpalooza
“Did you know that less people complete the Great Loop than climb Mount Rushmore?” During our presentation last week at Looperpalooza, Brent posed that question to the 300 person audience. It was met with a few enthusiastic nods, and a lot of confused expressions. I considered just letting it go, but I was afraid that…

Read MoreThe One With Hurricane Ian
I’ve stared at a blank screen for an hour. Sometimes writing helps me process my emotions. Other times, I’d rather bottle it up, put on a smile and pretend like everything is fine. For whatever reason, today I’d rather do the latter. But I feel like I’d be doing our friends, our community and our…
Read MoreThe One Where We Said “Take 2” A Few Times
May was not our month. In fact, we stopped referring to them as our May days and started calling them our Maydays. All month we dealt with circumstances that made us say “Take 2.” Looking back, it’s almost comical and I can say with certainty that we are very glad to be in June! Here’s…
Read MoreThe One With Our Active Boat Kids
Don’t mistake my lack of posts for a lack of activity. It’s actually just the opposite for my boat kids. We are all on the go, non-stop lately. Thankfully, we all seem to thrive on a chaotic schedule. In addition to a full calendar of activities, we threw in a big spring break trip to…
