		<description><![CDATA[Meps and Barry,  I enjoy hearing how things are going in your lives, but wish you were still in the Puget Sound region where your wealth of nautical friends could lend you a hand and you could work sans the heat, roaches and black widow spiders. You probably were happy to be where you were through the winter when we had the usual rain and way more than the usual snow.  As you know, I have always highly valued life with an engineer who can always fix things and usually without leaking any bad words no matter the challenge! Congratulations on the progress made to date and your stamina and perserverance.  I hope we cross wakes in the not too distant future.  I wish you cool winds and no rain until the ports are tight. We all miss you both. If you ever get down our way, you always have a home with us while there. Much love, Barbara]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Congratulations!!! on surviving your first year! And again I say:  How do you do it? The cold, the bugs,(black widows no less) the ladder with groceries&gt;???  If your marrage has survived this it can survive anything. That is true love.
You two do have a mission and hopefully you will both survive it.  And yes, you do still have a since of humor, wow
Please ad me to your list, i am enjoying this drama and need to know how it all plays out.  Love you, Sharon]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hey guys! You sure can write! I posted a link to this on Facebook with this comment:

Two friends of mine have survived a year of living on land in a boat they are rebuilding, in the backwoods of Beaufort, without A/C or a furnace. They inspire me to persist in sorting through and clearing out what needs rebuilding in my own life: work space, household records, retirement plans (for the very distant future!), unneeded stuff.]]></description>
