Crossing Lake Okeechobee and eating some humble pie | Wayfinders Now #33
Hey Starlings, Our Okeechobee Waterway adventure continues! We cross Lake Okeechobee and run into an unexpected challenge involving some dolphins. We're Esther and Michael, an American couple with writing and photography backgrounds. In 2017, we sold our loft in Atlanta and moved aboard a 1994 Island Packet 35 named Hope that needed some love (and boat work after sitting on the hard for over three years!). As we learn how to become better sailors, we're especially interested in living small to gain abundance-cultivating sustainable living habits and having more time for nature and art! And we're learning about ways to 'live small' by reducing our waste footprint on and off the boat!
