Land Lubbers With A Sailing Addiction

I can remember being banded to my room after some bout of my bad behaviour, lying on the bed and daydreaming about running away to a cabin that I built deep in the woods where no one was ever going to be able to find me. As I got older my dreams never changed, there was always a cabin, of course those dreams evolved to include a husband maybe a kid or three and now my dreams include grandchildren, friends and family I can’t live without. 

So, drum roll while we are home, we have bought a plot of land on West Bay, Manitoulin Island, North Channel, Lake Huron, Ontario. I feel totally blessed. I sat on the shore looking across to the LaCloche Mountains and cried, not some silent, respectful teary moment, I had a full-out, blow out completely grateful, God loving waterfall of emotion. I am home.
