Last year I was a grain farmer/entrepreneur, now I am living on my 28 foot vintage sailboat.

Luckily, one of Canada’s top restaurants and bakeries is right here in Canoe Cove Marina. .cafe is a favourite stop for everything from morning coffee and fresh baking and pastries to a romantic evening meal with Mary.

Headed there now for a butter tart. 🇨🇦IYKYK

Decisiveness. Focus. Dreaming large. They’ve almost always served me well. And, as Mary likes to remind me, even in the times where I feel I’ve failed, there’s been gifts there too. 🏔️🏕️

Here in Denver. Waiting for Mary’s covid symptoms to abate so we can see each other. I’m the meantime, going through some photos of good times with my friend, out sailing on the Pacific Coast.

Want to see something special? 🌲✨ This is an ancient Mountain Ash from my parent’s yard. I milled it up back at the farm two years ago and brought a few slabs with me to the sailboat. Now, I’ve transformed them into beloved fixtures. From the place where I bled, wept, toiled and laughed with friends, these pieces carry memories in their grain. Swipe to see the journey from log to finished swiveling salon tables.

Paper or Digital Navigation: ⛵️🌊 I’m curious about navigation when sailing. There are so many apps now for wind, currents, and actual chart plotting. Are paper charts completely obsolete? Does anyone out there still use paper?

Thank you for the wonderful photos .samadhi

What do you think of this boat? A 1965 Sparkman and Stephens design. Built in New Zealand with cold-molded Kauri Wood. A classic bluewater wood/fibreglass boat that is more than capable of making the journey to Scotland.

This boat will open up all kinds of opportunities for us. Anything from a Northwest Passage to “around the Horn” will be on the table in this boat. Just going to find a way to make it happen now. That’s all there is to it.

There is a whole lotta joy in this photo. Mary, World. World, Mary.

🏔️ Imagine never forgetting the crucial details of your hunts or time spent on the trout streams. Every strategy, every triumph, and even the lessons learned from the challenges are all captured in one place. The Food Afield series of journals aren't just notebooks; they are a treasure trove of your hunting and fishing heritage, filled with details that will otherwise be lost in time. 🏹

Begin documenting your collection of adventures now. Start your heirloom library...your kids and grandkids will thank you!

Most of you won't know this, but last year I created a series of outdoor adventure journals that are available on Amazon. There is a general Outdoor Adventure Journal plus a Fly Fishing and Bowhunting specific book. The prompts contained in the journals are ones that I know to be valuable when recording my outdoor adventures. 🎣

I've designed these books specifically for different outdoor adventures, whether you are bowhunting or fly fishing or hiking and camping.

Eyes are the windows to our souls: I think not. My hands are covered in 57 years worth of scars, wounds, and calloused hardness.

They’ve been broken and repaired.

They are capable of giving the most loving caresses. They experience the most exquisite sensations. They ache for these moments.

At times my hands are numb, stinging with cold, but, mostly they stay warm and flexible.

They hammer things into their rightful place when brute force is necessary, and they produce works of art, delicate and precise.

My hands hold memories. They are an archive of my life lived. They are my window. You can look at them and see everything you wish to see.
