Enroute to Haida Gwaii 2014. The kids forced me to play on deck. They hate/hated the sound (and smell) of my vintage Honer Arietta 1B. This accordion later took a ride on the back of a moped from PV to Guadalajara to get a reed job. Walking through an airport with that accordion, many Mexicans actively tried to connect with me: props, high fives, smiles, miming, winks, jokes & laughter. Mexico taught me that music is more about spirit and service and less about self. Th...ey seem to listen to music in a way I had never seen before. In a bar live music is not something to shout over. Every time we played the Malaguena (at the Green Tomate) it was not a performance. It was something we all did together. It was pure magic and in that moment we weren't separate - this is why I wanted to travel. #shoplocal #boatlife #cowichanbaymaker #artisanmade #makerlife #cowichanbay #cowichantourism #cowichan #vancouverisland #yvr #yyj #explorevancouverisland

Northbound! Arriving in SF 2017. Our departure was much less smiley, and calm. We hit the famed "potato patch" hard. Sara: "Port. Steer to port." Me: intimidated by all the shipping traffic. Sara: "Port! Port! Steer to Port!!! .. LEFT!! TURN LEFT!!". We were hobby horsing so much our anchors were bouncing.. and that means the kids sleeping in the V-birth below were airborne (which they later confirmed) and still talk about to this day.
