“This wasn’t just a ride—it was a reckoning.”
I didn’t come to prove anything. I came to see if the woman who used to ride like hell was still in there.
Spoiler: she is. And she brought snacks. #WomenWhoRide #CyclingComeback #Over40Athlete teresauncharted.ca/tour-of-the-...

I Rode Colorado’s Tour of the Moon — With the Wrong Kind of Training
I found myself signed up for a legendary event in Colorado called Tour of the Moon. It was scenic, challenging, and a little reckless — in the best way.

This isn’t a midlife crisis. It’s a comeback.
I started hiking, kayaking, biking… and then bought a sailboat.

They say every anchorage has its own rhythm. For Grace Harbour, it just happened to start with zero wind and a lot of curiosity. #sailing #sailingadventure #pacificnorthwest #vancouverisland #desolationsound #sailingbc #canada

Let’s be honest. Starting a blog feels a bit like standing at the end of a dock shouting into the fog, hoping someone hears you. But if you’re into sailing, dogs, coastal adventures, and the occasional dose of chaos, then you’ve found the right place! #sailing #sailinglife #sailingadventures
I Bought a Boat and Didn’t Completely Lose My Mind
Buying a boat is supposed to be exciting. What the boat hunt actually was? A mildly unhinged combination of detective work and disappointment.

You’d never know these two photos were taken seconds apart. Sunrise in front of me and the moon behind. I like how the mountains were glowing 🥰
I also like that I’m already getting more light in the morning again after the time change just over a week ago! #britishcolumbia #vancouverisland #canada

Need a distraction from earthly news? Up all night stressed anyway (or willing to set an alarm to be briefly up)?
There’s a full lunar eclipse late Thursday night or early Friday morning (depending on your time zone). Watch the moon turn blood red! www.npr.org/2025/03/11/n...

What to know about this week's 'blood worm moon' total lunar eclipse
This total lunar eclipse — the first in three years — will feature a "blood worm moon," so named for the reddish hue of its glow and the time of year it's occurring.

Hello darkness my old friend…
At least this time I know it’s only for a couple of weeks! Beautiful, calm morning at the beach now that the herring have stopped spawning in this area. #canada #vancouverisland #britishcolumbia #beachwalk #dawnpatrol #sunrise

Funny.. At this rate of the Cheeto in Chief actions, a beer a day is insufficient
Canada’s oldest brewery is selling a crate of 1,461 beers – dubbed the "Presidential Pack" – to help Canadians get through the next four years with a beer a day: cnn.it/4kCg4Fy
Brewery releases a crate of 1,461 beers for Canadians to get through the next 4 years | CNN Business
Amid the tariffs, threats of annexation and other chaos Canada’s neighbors to the south are igniting, surviving the next four years is only possible with a daily beer.

Just a quick vid of a sailing trip on the backside of Quadra Island. We planned this part of the trip for slack tide since Hole in the Wall can get a bit spicy if you time it wrong 😉 (Seymour Narrows runs at 16 kts so I’m guessing it’s similar here.) #sailing #vancouverisland #desolationsound

I don’t know why it’s not using the actual thumbnail from the video, but here’s a short clip from a sail to the Octopus Islands last summer. I just finally looked at the footage recently 🤣 But if pro YouTubers can post 6 mos later, I can too, right?? #sailing #oceanlife #vancouverisland #canada
