Soft morning colors melt through a light blanket of fog. Crispy clean air fill our thirsty lungs as we hoist the sails for another glorious day. #venturelivesinallofus #wintersailing #naturesbeauty (at Puget Sound region) https://www.instagram.com/p/CI81voDj3N3/?igshid=1hxr8t30oa8df

Beautiful weekend spent along the New Dungeness spit. After 9 days of bad air quality from all of the fires, we were antsy to get off and put in a good 13 mile run/walk along the water's edge. Our lungs, body, and spirits feel rejuvenated. (at New Dungeness Lighthouse) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFZ4n7sg7GO/?igshid=1gujr5r1sw0s9

What is it like to live a life of your dreams? At times it doesnt make sense to people who know your struggles. At times it doesn't make sense to give yourself more struggles. But then again, all you have to do is retrace your path and decide why you chose it. And why you chose it, will give you permission to praise your decisions, or not. To love your path, or not. We can thinknof a million bits of logic to not like this path. We can think of a million bits of magic to fall in love with this life. It is the magic we hold on to. For some that may seem foolish. ......... Don't stop reading now, you're half-way through. Click the link in our bio for the full read on our website's blog page. Cheers and magic!🦋 (at San Juan Islands) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEsK4dNA_kj/?igshid=pecff4l84td9

When we choose to look at darkness and lightness, we can see the balance it forms on this earth. Darkness helps us find problems. Lightness helps us solve problems. When we choose to focus on where the light is illuminating the darkness, that is where the magic begins. Yes my friends. There is magic all around us. Let's choose to see it. #venturelivesinallofus (at San Juan Islands) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEKLYCOAyFn/?igshid=1fh7at6klmayz

A GENERATIONAL HEADSTAND My grandpa stood on his head till he was 86 years old. He was born in 1911. Challenge accepted grandpa! 💪 1 day, I will be like you. Grandma was all about women's strength. She was born in 1920. I never understood why she was so happy I got my driver's license, because that was another tiny check off of my list. But now I understand. I was blessed with a mother and father who never tried to tell me I wasn't good enough. To them, I was always good enough for everything. They gave me so much strength to grow mentally, physically, and spiritually healthy. 🥰 Cheers to the millennial generation. Stay strong! 💪 You are good enough! 😘 And to Gen Z, you're going to be even better. Keep learning. Keep pushing. Keep growing. Much love! #venturelivesinallofus https://www.instagram.com/p/CDMsbnFA5A8/?igshid=1mm0n68aun45w

Exerpt "I keep hanging on to the words of my father, "An adventure isn't an adventure until all your plans go wrong." 5 years ago, we started filming our sailing adventures in Alaska while we were paying off our student loans. There were mishaps along the way, but the biggest one was yet to come." ...

In Alaska, we never had the opportunity to have so many sailing neighbors. On anchor, our neighbors were always the wildlife around us. I love being on anchor and watching other people. What homeowners never say, "Oh, I just woke up. As I was floating in the water and drinking my coffee, I watched my neighbor climb up his mast and fix something. It is up close and personal, but far enough away. So happy to be on the water experiencing all the adventures of the Salish Sea. #venturelivesinallofus (at San Juan Islands) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCtnQsIgccD/?igshid=1hz2c7445lmf7

Wind, water, and nature are the best teachers. "Going with the flow" is their motto. That is what we are all here doing on this earth after all. We are all going with the flow of something. There is beauty in the waves and wind of life. Sometimes it is hard to see. But if we all just opened our eyes and gained a grander perspective, the flow of life is more beautiful than our tiny brains can come close to comprehending. Yet every breakthrough we get in comprehending, is magic. A sort of magic that stops all space and time. #venturelivesinallofus https://www.instagram.com/p/CCmEXPFgqC7/?igshid=pskuqy6mmip0

These feet have been sharing the same adventures for 7 years. We cherish these tanlines and miss them when Winter sets in. But for now, they're ready to get much darker. Who knew tanlines on feet could be so exciting. What's your favorite sandal? #thelittlethingsinlife @chacofootwear #venturelivesinallofus #tanline #embracethejourney #welivetoexplore #lovestory #sailing #sailingpugetsound https://www.instagram.com/p/CCg4OGqAEkn/?igshid=fpuxq3yas0au

Working on a custom solar mount, and upgrading our electrical system to have a floating home with more creature comforts. After being offgrid for 5 years, we know more of what we want and how to build it ourselves. Solar and battery technology has gotten exponentially better. Excited to share more about our electrical upgrades in a future video. In the meantime, stay tuned. #venturelivesinallofus #sailboatlife #diy #offgridliving #floatinghome #offgridfilmmakers https://www.instagram.com/p/CB_gPflg5oT/?igshid=1w3qxp1ry17z0

The more projects we do, the more holes we drill. Does anyone else get nervous about drilling holes in their boat? 🙋‍♀️ #sailboatprojects #venturelivesinallofus https://www.instagram.com/p/CBwMGZMg6bg/?igshid=t3bgy7lxbdvb
