Brrrr's the word
Hello Everyone,
Here's a couple pictures for ya so you'll get the feel of the place.....We took her out in Bellingham bay a couple days ago, unfortunately, I didn't take any pics with her sails up.... We've had some snow and wind in the range of 40+ mph, but it's just rockin' me to sleep.
I'll check back in before to long.

Live-Aboard
Well, I'm all moved on! I think I brought more stuff in my little ford escort than I should have...space is at a real premium on the boat and hardly any of my "stuff" have found 'it's place'.
The weather has been nippy but the sun is out right now and it's Wonderful! I'm still working on the boat to make it a comfortable environment and to get her ready for this spring when I plan on living at different places through-out the San Juans.
Sure is nice to without a job..... although, it's weird to just dink around all day! I guess us Drones are use to only one way!
I'll be getting the title in my name today and also renting a slip for the month, which is only $182.
I'll add more to the situation later..... and maybe a picture or two.

Almost outta here....again
Just a quick update.
Trevor and I have for the last 4 days been working on the boat to get 'er ready for the trip to Anacortes and I think we had cleared the last hurdle, well, as far as the work that needs to be done before the trip. I'm still waiting on the insurance company to get back to me before we can sail.
I hired a Marine Surveyor/Inspector to survey the boat and point out any deficiencies and he found more than I ever would have imagined! I've dumped probably $700-$800 (so far) in little things that have needed to be done forever..... there is still quite a list of work I will still need to do, but nothing pressing at this point.
Once again, (yes, I've said this several times before) we should be leaving on high tide Thursday morning at 7 AM. I'll take lots of pictures on the trip down so everyone can come along with us.

I made it !
I'm here in beautiful downtown Anacortes, Washington. I got here today (Jan 17th, 08') about 2 PM, I have been over at my sisters house in Sequim, and that too is a Beautiful place.
I've got a job interview for a Systems Information Technician for the City of Anacortes tomorrow at 12:30, if all goes well I'll be living & working here..... If not, I'll just be living here in my boat (haven't bought yet, but looking at it tomorrow also), which I hope will be the Catalina 27' sailboat sloop.
I'll have more information after tomorrow and I'll try to keep you all informed.
Goodbye, I'll talk to you soon!
