Travel by Car: Going South for a Celebration

Santa Barbara, CA

We got back to the marina on a Saturday, saw Thor in theatre and got to work on chores and errands. We were at the marina in Blaine, WA until the following Friday when we left on a road trip. Our destination was Santa Barbara in California. My grandfather turned 80 and the whole family was gathering to celebrate. Shane and his mom, Sandy, or Gramma D. We were looking forward to the air conditioning of the car. It had been a whirlwind of tasks in the heat of a marina-bound boat in July. This was our first road trip south, where our starting destination was[...]

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.

Neptune in his natural environment 🔱

Shane’s instincts are to go where the wind is — mine tell me to hide 😋

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.
