I know... I know... It has been a while. It's not like I don't have anything to say. It's more likely that I keep planning on writing it tomorrow night...and then tomorrow night... and so on. Eventually you end up finally getting to it a month later. For this post I will let the photos …
The Reason Why I Didn’t Post Anything Last Week Is Because I Was Lazy!
I figured it has been long enough since my last post and, like getting back to exercising, there is no better time than now to begin. Over the last two weeks we have had our ups and downs with the boat. I think I will start with the downs. When doing a renovation of this …

Our Boating Life Had Officially Begun … Sort Of!
The time had finally arrived. After so many months of hard work Becky was finally going to fulfill her destiny ... as a floating cottage! Leanne and I arrived in Wiarton on Friday evening and found they had moved our boat to another slip. This was so they could be close enough to their shop …

Becky Is In The Water … Finally!
This will be a very quick post! It has been a very long day but a very good day. Our boat is finally in the water and she was still floating as of 3 hours ago when we left Wiarton. Dan the electrician started the wiring for the helm electronics. Among other things Donald installed …
The KM
Now that our boat is in Wiarton there isn't much that I can do on a hot Sunday morning other than make plans for what we are doing next and write my blog. For those of you who have been following along since the beginning you will know that Becky isn't the official name of …
Becky Goes To Wiarton!
This day started very early for me. It was like I was a kid again waiting to head downstairs on Christmas morning. I'll admit it. I was very excited about what the day was going to bring. It was still too early to get up so I checked my email. This is the email that …
One More Sleep…
It was exactly 10 months ago that we were eagerly anticipating Becky's arrival and now we are about 12 hours away from her leaving. They grow up so fast don't they? We didn't get it all done but she's going anyway. We have power to the lower living area and this week we will have …
T Minus 2 Days … 9 Hours … 4 Minutes …55 Seconds!
We are down to the final weekend and have accepted the fact that we won't be finished by Monday. It actually feels like a weight has been taken off our shoulders. We are ok with getting whatever we haven't completed done over the course of the summer. Becky will be shipped to Wiarton on Monday …

The Countdown Starts…
We are now approximately 133 hours away from this boat leaving St. Jacobs forever. It really wasn't that long ago that it was 133 days! It is now the end of day two of our 7 day sprint to the finish line. Don't let the fact that I used the word "finish" suggest the idea …
The List
We finalized "the list" a couple of days ago and it was, to say the least, overwhelming. It is two pages long and single spaced. I think Donald and I have come to terms with the fact that there are a few items on that list that will not be done by June 15th. I …
