This blog is devoted to the exploration of our family's life adventure and things we care about: smart risks, creative challenges, constant learning, lust for life, and love.

Our wild gang of adventure seekers.
This is our handsome Captain, "Dad" (or Travis). A true Maine boy, Trav has been skiing and sailing with style since he was knee high to a grasshopper. A serious goofball (an oxymoron, but intended as a high compliment), this amazing Dad keeps all of us laughing and is the inspired instigator of our new life plan. He has successfully transformed his family into a boat-loving, water-obsessed, nature freak gang of wanderlusters. Lucky us!
This is Hudson: expert dingy-driver, sick mogul skier, talented artist and fish taco enthusiast. (According to Hud, the lionfish tacos at Hatchet Caye, Belize are the best he's ever tried, and he's tried a lot,) At ten years old, there's no adventure too large or small for Hud. He's also a super loving, very protective and wonderfully fun big brother.
This is Vivian: passionate traveler, ballerina, ardent student of the Mandarin language (really), and asker of deep questions. Viv is a seven year old with a true appetite for adventure and learning. She loves snuggling and refers to Hud as her best friend.
This is me, Mom (also known as Jen). I'm a children's theater director and playwright, but currently full-time first mate and homeschooling mom. I love life and am natually curious about just about everything. Spending time with my family is what I love best.
And last but not least, our adventure dog, Sadie. She's an 11 year old chocolate lab mix that we adopted from the Humane Society when she was 3 months old. She's our constant companion, and lives on the boat with us.
Travis and Jen Julia are Captain and First Mate of SV Moxie. Originally from Maine and friends since they were nine years old, Trav & Jen reside in Telluride, CO when they are not sailing with their crew, which includes Hudson (11) and Vivian (8).
