Finding Stillness in the Shipyard | Alaskan Gypsy Reflections

Today I stepped away from the grind of the shipyard to share a quiet walk and talk from Wrangell, Alaska. Living aboard and restoring our 80ft schooner, the Alaskan Gypsy, isn’t always easy — there’s noise , work, days on end of rain.....but sometime's the sun pops through and a rainbow even shows up :) This video is a softer reflection from me, Audrey, as I pause to appreciate the beauty around us, the persistence it takes to refit a boat, and the dream that keeps us moving forward. If you’ve ever lived in a shipyard, worked on a big project, or tried to find peace in the middle of noise, I’d love to hear your thoughts. How do you handle the constant hum of machines? Do you wear ear protection, or just get used to it?
