Boat trip, day 3, home

Florida pool
After last night’s dive. Pool water 87 degrees March 28. Year unknown, maybe 2024.
pools
2005…this was our 2nd pool. The 1st one was made of plastic. Our son is on the left and his friend Robert on the right. We didn’t get an in-ground pool until seven years after this photo – June 1, 2012 we began filling the new, empty, pool with a garden hose.

Should we get sad at the reality of having to leave the water location?

No sadness.

Only gratitude.

Gratitude for your memories, and, for your hopes and plans.

Boat trip, day 2, home

sunset from Florida marina
Perfect day in every way. While Tracy played DJ, we relaxed on the boat’s front deck until 11:00pm. Sunset was at 8:30pm.

What is it that stimulates our mind, body, and spirit when we are next to water? Probably everything.

Does the mind, body, spirit stimulation change when we immerse ourselves in the water? Of course. And magically, we don’t even need to get in the water for the stimulation.

Dear (actual island) Island Time, we love and appreciate you. And thank you for partnering with the water to make the entire setting magical.

Boat trip, day 1, home

Room ready at 1:00pm when we arrived. Pictured here: Relaxing and waiting for our friends to arrive.

Why does visiting a water feature stimulate our mind, body and spirit?

First trip to Compass by Margaritaville was in Winter.

Here we are, Summer around the corner.

Second trip started earlier this morning.

Photo above is us after checking in today and awaiting our friend’s arrival.

Can you say, ‘Island Time’?

Yes!

Next Trip

Logan Pass Visitors Center parking lot June 16, 2019. No cars. When we return July 6, the parking lot will be full of cars.

Next trip.

Sanibel Island, in two days.

Then a week at home.

Then a one-way ticket back to Kalispell.

Then a quick trip to Mexico from Glacier and back to Kalispell.

Can return at any time and can stay for a month.

New territory our family.
