We Bought a Boat While on Vacation

We closed on our sailboat while on vacation in California. The kids had summer camps and we had plans to be on sandy beaches. This video shares what we did while waiting for paperwork to be completed. We feel very grateful for being able to have had this experience together.

Most of the music I place in our videos are songs we were listening to during the time of filming whatever we were doing. Or, I find music that is acceptable for Youtube monetization using stock music that fits the profile of music. I love that the music in this video attaches to their corresponding memories for my kids. All of my strongest memories are attached to a soundtrack.

Find all of the music used in a playlist here:

  • Recap on selling the house
  • Traveling down I5
  • Solvang & Santa Barbara Zoo
  • Traveling to San Diego
  • Universal Studios
  • San Diego Beach fun
  • Woodward West drop off
  • Santa Barbara beach fun
  • Buying the boat & heading north
  • Boarding the boat!

Don’t rock the boat, baby 😘

“Recents” from February - it was a busy one! Kelly is in a drama production here on island. The kids have been climbing (and Shane). Shane has been sailing, paddling, sauna-ing, and working on the boat (and working). We’ve made a lot of local friends and new boat buddies! Homeschool was mainly done off the boat this month with a lot of time exploring our out of this world surroundings.

Grammy and Grampy came to visit. Friday Harbor is a favorite boating destination for them, but their first time staying with us! 

The family traveled to the mainland for a boat part once and bundled it with a Trader Joe’s stop and to see Ant Man (we loved it). 

It sounds like March is going to live up to its name and we’re ready for it.

Another adventure on the island! It's so beautiful here. 

Winter is the time to be here — ferries, hotels, and rental cars are more affordable. Plus, there’s a quarter of the people.

If you can be patient with ferry cancellations/changes, odd restaurant hours, some windy bits, a little rain here and there (this is the sunshine belt though), the odd snow storm — then winter is 👌 😋

You know it gets windy there with the gnarled trees and grass like that 😋

The boys and I tried to hike around here last June when we anchored in Griffin Bay. I had to call Shane to pick us up early in the dinghy because my eyes were too swollen and itchy to keep going. Oh well! We had a mostly dry hike this time and the views were beautiful. Especially on the west side overlooking Victoria.
