Drowning in boxes

Here I am surrounded by sifted piles of stuff. Amazing when all you have is a 10 by 10 storage space and a floating locker what you can let go of.

I'm so excited to embark on this journey...I peel the possessions away and feel lighter despite the pain of letting go...

OK, so we're not literally floating off in a bottle. But, I imagine those bottles that used to impossibly hold little model ships, intricately set inside. Our family will be within our own tight confines, the beautiful 37' Dutch Yawl VINDHLER...and like the infamous message in a bottle, we wont know our final destination until we arrive.

Our crew consists of my beloved husband John, first mate PRIMO(aka Blake who is eight), Dantesauras, our two year old, and the courageous felines Edna and Gigi.

Stay tuned for the pre-adventure madness.
