WE GOT OUR BOATS!
Today we took a trip down to Northland Services to say "hi" to Megan and the crew of Northland Services. Matt had the bright idea to pick up some bagels and cream cheese on the way for everyone at the Northland office since we had been calling Megan almost daily and figured that would continue until we got our boats. She was very nice and said there was a chance we could get boats by 5:00 pm tomorrow.
We left and ran some errands. We returned to Noel and Steve's a couple of hours later to a message that our boats were ready to be picked up!
When we went back down to Northland to get the boats the scene was pretty impressive. Entire shipping containers (sometimes three stacked) filled with cargo were being forklifted high above our heads not looking altogether stable. We grabbed our boats and got out there.

Unwrapping them in them the front yard of Noel and Steve we were psyched to find them all intact. Yeah!
I began paddling in the waters of Cook Inlet, working as a guide in Kachemak Bay. Since then, my husband Matt and I have moved to Orcas Island Washington and work with Body Boat Blade. We are passionate about paddling in dynamic waters and living adventurous lives. The Kenai is so diverse and wild, it’s a place I love to know exists on this planet.
