Living Better with Less. October 27, 2013. A simple life is not seeing how little we can get by with – that’s poverty – but how efficiently we can put first things first…When you’re clear about your purpose and your priorities, you can painlessly discard whatever does not support these, whether it’s clutter in your cabinets or commitments on your calendar. Victoria Moran. We finally hiked Mt. Washington. 2 hours, 20 minutes to the summit! Relaxing in Maine at my parents’ cabin. Good times. You are commen...

Reboot the mission | Living Better with Less
https://breakingkatie.wordpress.com/2013/08/21/reboot-the-mission
Living Better with Less. August 21, 2013. Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for – in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it. Ellen Goodman. Was any of this necessary? Couldn’t I have lived more simply, and continued doing what I love? Would I have been happier? It’s time to reboot! This entry was posted in Musings.

Kids eye view of life aboard. Tuesday, March 31, 2015. The kids and Isla Santa Cruz (The Galapagos). Pelican customers: Gimme some fishies. Conrad: The next island we visited was Isla Santa Cruz and we had lots of fun. Las Grietas, the mini canyon. There also was a place called Las Grietas. It is a brackish water (fresh and. That got mixed together) filled crack in between two cliffs, like a little canyon. The marine iguanas really needed to come (they only eat algae), because. I slid down the rocks.

The execution of our hare brained scheme. Where are we now. Sunday, July 26, 2015. The natural beauty of this island is something I can hardly describe with words. We took our time here and spent a week hiking to waterfalls, touring up the Indian River, and driving up and down the craziest hills we have ever seen. Our longest hike was to Middleham Falls. It rained on us the whole way there. The hike up was challenging mostly by the complaints from those two same lovely children of ours. After...The Frenc...

Kids eye view of life aboard. Tuesday, March 11, 2014. Did you know that hermit crabs can live in caves? Today we went to two caves. This what the first cave was like: it was a deep cave, it was an active cave, and like most caves it had bats. This is what the second cave was like: we saw 3 hermit crabs, even more bats, and there was a second cave underneath. This is the biggest ghost crab we have caught. He was not happy to be captured.

Kids eye view of life aboard. Monday, December 1, 2014. A fort here and a fort there. The walking honeycomb fortress. My fort was called the walking honeycomb. My fort took three days to make (but I didn't stay for the whole day). I had fun at my fort and was sad when I had to leave. My fort was in Spanish Water in Curacao. I had other forts in places like Clay Rock in Grenada and our bathroom fort on the boat. Dizzy sick Mark in fortress. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Burying in the sand.
