A long year draws to a close

Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

 

We came back to Edmonton almost a year ago, in order for Susanne to be with her mother after she suffered some serious health issues. It has been a hard year for both of them. After a series of setbacks and miraculous recoveries, at times looking very dire and at other times looking hopeful, Susanne's mother passed away last week, somewhat unexpectedly in the end.

 

For us, it means we have to regroup a bit and decide where we go from here. There is no real rush, but among other issues, we will have to find a new home address, and figure out what to do with our few remaining non-boat belongings. We are not sure when we will be able to get back to the boat, and this is not really the appropriate season to be starting our previously planned northward journey to Mexico. Fortunately we are confident with leaving the boat in its current location at Paradise Marina in El Salvador - I am sure they are taking good care of her there.

 

One day at a time...
