About Me

My photo
After years of talking/thinking about it we finally decided to cut the land ties, purchase a boat, and start a new adventure. It's that moment when you realize that instead of adjusting your working life to pay for your non-working life, you adjust your non-working life to live within your means. Even though someone else wrote this on their blog - I had to repeat it, because it is exactly what we came to realize ourselves. Yes "Drift Away" - we FINALLY get it.

JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA



We traveled up the St. John's River to the Trout River and Seafarers' Marina where the boat stayed for six weeks until we closed up everything in Charlotte.  The following pictures are when we left Seafarers on May 28, 2013 to pick up where we left off and begin our journey to Wilmington, NC.


We were up at sunrise to continue our journey.
