Jim, Build a boat then where you go so does your home - no more of this packing and unpacking.... This has been an experience I do not wish to repeat... Less possessions = a simpler life, Just plant gardens everywhere, then when I come back should have pumpkin, cue-comber, watermelon, banana, pineapples and pawpaw/papaya etc.....

we're gonna try the "self sufficiency" thing,, have the gardens ( also with the deal comes 100 acres of farm land to use as we want) the animals,, still do my "side jobs" and since i'll be in maine,, start doing some odd boat jobs,, least the easy ones
i need to SLOW down,, at this rate i'll be crippled like they said i would
if the wifers would get over her fear of water,, would make the "build a boat" way easier hehe

Just say as I say, I can't swim, you fear water so we are in the same boat (extra careful) and the boat is robust and capable of comfortable voyages and I have no intention of going out in stormy weather, or where we cannot quickly flee to safety - up a creek (shallow draft).....

wait till she's sleepin,, throw her in the boat,, let her wake up 100 miles off shore,, then, cut the coil wires,,, bet by the time we get back,, she's "used" to the water
