It has been over 5 years since we moved out to the coast, bought Terratima and began living aboard. Last summer (Summer 2014), Carolyn went to Edmonton and we sold or gave away to charity and family 5/6 of what we had in storage. We simply did not miss any of it. We still have a few cherished items we will keep in storage.
The issue now is the way forward. The plan is very simple, retire and head south into the Pacific Ocean. That said, we need to ensure we have some modest income and that we can continue sailing as long as our health holds up. So how much is enough? Our needs are not great, but we have an Autistic son and the issue is how he will move forward into adulthood. He is so loving and wonderful, yet we worry so much. There are no easy answers, but we continue to feel each day out as it happens - and we pray.
