I’ve been operating on very little sleep lately so this is just a brief video update before the Salish Sea crossing on Saturday. Thanks to many generous donations I’ve made just over $600 for the Pacific Assistance Dogs Society. If you still care to donate the pups and I would be extremely grateful!

Hi Busy Girlio!!! Glad you are going on this Lake adventure…..and, in reading about your early paddling in Australia… Funny, this morning I left you a new message on your blog…..smiling….Have a safe paddle….love from your old California friend, Barbie
Wish you calm seas for the crossing and can’t wait for the blog after the finish. This video was an over long stream of consciousness or rather a diary entry you could have skipped and caught some sleep. However – it is always wonderful to see and hear from you. Go safely L1.
You look so excited! I hope you sleep well and have a fantastic time. Good luck!!!
Thanks Patti and thanks so much for the donation! You’re a rock star!
Hi darling, watching your video, you must be well prepared. You mentioned all the bits you needed for this sea crossing, hope that the kayak can carry it all. May there be sunshine and not much wind. You gutsie girl, be safe and hear from you when you have reached the other side. Love you heaps, Mutti xx 😘
Thanks Mutti, it’s 3:40am and I’m just scoffing down a bowl of oatmeal, almost ready to go!
