So, we borrowed a friend's truck and went out to Moab again for another dirt biking adventure. I took a pretty hard fall in the sand, and then freaked out for ...two days. I really didn't want to fall again and just felt nervous constantly. Apparently that just makes it worse. But, we were on some beautiful trails the second day and saw deer. It would've been a bit more enjoyable if I weren't afraid I was going to die the whole time. Then, for the non-biking part of the trip we drove 4 or 5 more hours to Bryce Canyon. It was definitely worth the trip. So dirt biking doesn't have much to do with the subject of this blog: saving money to go sailing. But maybe posting will make me feel better about the money we spent. And hey, going on mini-adventures prepares us for our future grand adventure!
After five years of saving and scheming, we quit our jobs and sold our house in Denver, CO. This is the story of our journey from Maine where we bought Baby Blue, down the US Atlantic Coast (offshore and ICW), through the Eastern Caribbean islands and back again from July 2014 - July 2016. We then returned to shore to build a tiny house, buy land, and have a baby! We're now raising our young son in Western North Carolina and planning our next big adventure.
