Architectural Photography & Stories

“Old Dreams” - When I was 12 years old my Dad bought us a yellow Sunfish Sailboat. Neither one of us knew how to sail. We put the boat in the water, I got in and he pushed me off! I absolutely loved slicing through the water under the power of the wind. As I got older my attention drifted away from sailing and sadly I haven’t sailed since the Yellow Sunfish summers of my youth • In my 20s I lived in Fort Lauderdale, Florida (boating capital of America) and a dream was born - some day I would sail the world with my significant other. • Years later I moved to Colorado and that dream disappeared. Thanks to YouTube I have recently discovered so many inspiring people(tagged in photo) documenting their lives as they sail the world. After binge watching several of these YouTube sailing channels for the past couple months my dream of sailing the world has been resurrected! And Liz is on board too! • We will start small on our soon to be “home waters” of Lake Dillon. We will likely start off with some sort of trailerable pocket cruiser, a Catalina 22 or West Wight Potter 19, to learn how to properly sail on one of America’s most challenging lakes. With high gusts and shifting winds they say if you can sail Dillon, you can sail anywhere! • I share this dream of mine(now ours) in effort to connect with any of you who may be into sailing, marina life, trailer sailers, familiar with the boats I mentioned, etc.. I’d love to connect off line some time to learn more. • This photograph, recently captured in Chicago, represents this dream of living aboard. This is is Monroe Harbor and the 300+ boats moored literally across from the heart of the city. I see another kind kind of a built environment, marine architecture, communities scattered around the world offering a life of adventure from anchorage to anchorage. It’s a Dream now, but I do believe dreams come true!
