It seems like a lifetime ago that we were drawn to the water, when we first got together we 'knew' the water was calling us. We moved down to California, Lodi California, to be by the water. First I got a job at Tower Park Marina. Then we fell into a houseboat, 30' pontoon boat. And we spent 3 years running around the Delta on our houseboat. Meeting a bunch of people, having alot of fun, and fishing practically everyday. We caught a bunch of stripper. Took alot of friends fishing. And knew then that we were destined to live on the water. Things happened and we moved to Medford, Oregon. And it seems that we spent the rest of those years trying to figure out where or what would make us happy. We tried the 'buy a house' thing. Then we started a mosaic tile business 'Shining Impressions' ,,, then one day we decided to go back to the water...
We put the archery stuff away, we put the snow board stuff away, we got rid of the house, we sold 'Shining Impressions' we put the golfing stuff away, we put all of the remote control car stuff away, or should I say,, we sold almost everything, because we are so ready to get back to the water, and sailing is going to be our life, not just a hobby. We are celebrating our 14th anniversary, September 14th, and it seems like he just asked me to marry him last week. It has taken us awhile to remember where we started, and where we wanted to go at that time, but we finally got back to the beginning, right back to where we started. And the circle of life starts over again, only this time we aren't looking for direction, we have a journey to look forward to, together....forever.... bunkmate
