A week to go before returning to the working world. We've taken this time to rest, recharge and do a few things around "home". One question that keeps coming up from friends is: "What's it like to live on a boat?" The simple answer is "home is home".
We miss absolutely NOTHING we left behind in storage. We are not cold and we are not wet. In fact, the boat is as warm as any of you own houses and we are dry. Even in the heaviest rain, we're fine. When we leave the boat, it is with umbrella in hand for those rainy winter days. We have TV, internet and e-mail, books - all the comforts of home. What we do not have is a lot of space - and that we don't miss either. It helps to simplify things and not accumulate (which is what everything out there seems to want you to do).
