'Houses are but badly built boats so firmly aground that you cannot think of moving them. They are definitely inferior things, belonging to the vegetable not the animal world, rooted and stationary, incapable of gay transition. The desire to build a house is the tired wish of man content thenceforward with a single anchorage. The desire to build a boat is the desire of youth, unwilling yet to accept the idea of a final resting-place'. - Arthur Ransome





'For the truth is that I already know as much about my fate as I need to know. The day will come when I will die. So the only matter of consequence before me is what I will do with my allotted time. I can remain on shore, paralysed with fear, or I can raise my sails and dip and soar in the breeze.'
-Richard Bode

Time to more on from Darwin

Yes we are back in Darwin after a lovely time back with the family and friends plus catching up with farm chores.
The change in the weather in those 3 weeks is noticeable and we are both doing all to get things done so that we can continue our adventure. While we have little control over contractors and their promises at least we are now here and can try and move things along.
Thank goodness for air-conditioning as it helps to make it pleasant inside.
The date for leaving I can now say will be some time in October!!!!!
Go Saints
