Well… that’s a good question… am working on a video now about what the future on Brick House may look like…now that Michael has left the boat….
The video below makes it clear what Michael is doing now…but what about Brick House…now with no captain…or is there?
This is a sad time for me…but a time of vast growth I suppose. It will be a time of standing on my own, taking over my beloved boat as captain instead of first mate…a time to maybe make new sailing friends, a new kind of cruising perhaps…
It will be a time of finding a new kind of living and cruising, and a time to become even more intimate with Brick House than I already am. For example…something I’ve always left to the captain…why does the boat not engage in reverse right away..it’s always been like that. but why? What needs to change? I’ve taken some steps in the last few weeks to explore that…afraid to let a “Professional” step in since everything else works so well..I don’t want something else to break as we fix this. And that seems to be the norm when you hire pros.
Maybe I found someone who can help after I researched the heck out of it and possibly found an answer that I haven’t had for 21 years…..but I will know if this person doesn’t have the right answer and will kick his butt out of the engine room, carefully watching what he does and not letting him harm my boat…I am the captain now…no matter what I shoes to do next…
Be sure to watch this video that Michael so painstakingly made..it’s a true work of art…
The first Michael has done on the channel in almost its entirety ( I have a small part at the end that I added) . It’s so very very good. And told from his point of view… makes me cry every time I watch it.
It like I said…my future is in my hands now completely… and I can’t wait to share with you what I’m doing next…
It’s been a long time since we sold the Yellowrose to you! Guess we made the correct choice when we did so! Thanks for being friends for all these years! Looking forward to seeing you some time! Carol is in a care center with Alzheimer’s and is near the end! So sad to see my wife in such a state! Let’s stay in touch with each other! Thanks for taking care of our old Yellowrose!

Dear Rebecca,
First of all, congratulations to the both of you. What a roller coaster of events, emotions, decisions and transitions. And thank you for sharing such personal times. The best of luck and fair winds to the both of you.
Neither of us all have time to waste, you are doing the right things to overcome the lost of your husband…not time to waste but no reason to rush. You will find what is right for you.
Be kind and good to yourself and good faith will come your way, I am convinced…but as you know very much so…t‘is No Rose Garden.
Well wishes and warm regards from Belgium

hi, rebecca. i found your heart breaking story earlier this year, as i was going through my own heartache. i was so happy to discover that you found the strength to continue living your life in a way that allowed you to continue doing what you love.
it is crazy how a relationship can be this beautiful song, filled with all the right parts, but a little dissonance in just the right area can throw the whole thing off.
you seem like a genuinely loving soul. i hope that you are able to find the emotional comfort that you deserve; even if that is now in your adventures around the planet 🙂
Thank you so very much… sorry for the late reply…
Thank you for your very kind comment. I just found this comment!!
Sorry it took me so long to find this comment. Yeah… it was a very good idea to sell her to us… thanks!
