trishlaplaca INTRODUCING OUR FIRST ADVENTURE VLOG!
This week was fairly quiet, yet MOMENTOUS! Oyster is now all spiffed up and ready for the great adventure ~ and so are WE!
Jeff and I are extremely happy to have you aboard with us as we journey through the river routes north up to the St. Lawrence Seaway and beyond on what is known as The Triangle Loop section of the America’s Great boating Loop.
To make it all a little easier, I’m hoping to be able to write less and “vlog” (video blog) more and on a weekly basis if the internet service cooperates. Here is my first attempt – please bear with me as I try to become more and more tech savvy. By the end of the trip this Fall, I sure hope they appear to be more professional. But anyway, we hope you enjoy!
Love your Pearl earrings!!
Thanks, Fran! They’re a bit overstated, but I figured that pearls will definitely have to figure into anything we do on Oyster. Maybe they’ll bring us good luck all along the journey ;-)!
Trish, loved your video. You were a bit hard to hear, the first part was fine but when you spoke I had my phone turned all the way up. Maybe my phone?
I also couldn’t figure out what was beside you, it looked like the bottom of a dummy with a bikini but then I was thinking it’s the back of a seat? Must be my twisted mind.
Anyway, your 1st vlog is a success and I can’t wait to travel along on your journey.
Have fun (which one know you are) and be safe!
Thanks a million, Beth! I actually had a microphone attached to my shirt, but it may have fowled up. I’ll definitely be more conscious of that! You’re too funny – the “dummy with bikini” is a pillow. But anyway, most of all I SO appreciate your fun feedback. Thanks so much for checking out the page! Big hugs to you and your sweetie!
Thank you for the birthday wishes. We hope to follow you on tis exciting journey. We have friends who just started the loop for a year long trip so it was exciting to see that you will be on some of the same route. If you are on Lake Champlain or anywhere near us in Vermont and have time, we’d love to drive to see you or even bring you to the cottage for a day or two or three… whatever fits your plans. We are east of the lower end of Lake Champlain on route 144 which runs between routes 22a and 30 on Lake Hortonia.
Hi there, sweetie pie! Ooooh, we would absolutely love to catch up with you two if you aren’t out galavanting yourselves ;-)! We definitely plan to come down the Champlain after visiting the St. Lawrence Seaway. We’ll be in touch. Hope your birthday was absolutely wonderful!!!
I love this so so much! I may or may not have teared up watching it 😜
I feel like I’m along on your adventure! Thank you for letting me live vicariously through you two.
We love you two so much! Please give hugs to your family from us. I can’t wait for the next video!
Awww…we love you guys so much, too! It’s been really fun meeting up with everyone here – Carole and Gerry set us up on a dock at a restaurant Carole used to work for. It’s been amazing! I have 2 more video blogs and the last one about the Erie Canal talks about it. It sure has bee a wild journey!
We leave from here tomorrow to head up towards the St. Lawrence Seaway. I’ll check in with you via FaceTime soon. Are you guys back home?
We love you, love you, sweetie pie!
