We're gettin' hitched! Answer Your Questions Here!

Hello friends, family, fellow cruisers and genuine blog followers...

Exciting News for the Sound Discovery Crew of Two!

While cycling around Vietnam this past November, Clif whipped out a diamond ring and asked me to be his sailing buddy and First Mate for life. I responded with an immediate "Yes!" ... which means these two sailors are tying the knot... for real!

What does that mean for the adventures of Sound Discovery? We will be shortening our cruising season in the Sea of Cortez, and spending a chunk of our spring time wedding planning and getting married prior to our summer cruising season in Alaska.

Family and Friends Seeking Wedding Information...

For your convenience, and ours, we have added a tab up at the top of our blog labeled "Our Wedding" that includes as much information as possible about the wedding day events, prior wedding weekend events and what's going in Juneau the week of the wedding. We have chosen to get married prior to our summer work season on April 9th, 2016, in Juneau, Alaska, which means it is prior to the normal tourist season. While the tourism aspect of Juneau will be sleepy, the locals will be hoppin' as we Juneauites celebrate one of our favorite weeks of the year: Alaska Folk Festival. The Folk Festival takes place nightly April 4th-10th at Centennial Hall in downtown Juneau, and branches of into live music jams in almost every bar and restaurant during the week. It is one of my favorite weeks of the year in Juneau-- a week I have purposefully come back for year after year to be a part of and enjoy.

I could go on for days about how fun the Folk Festival is... just trust me! It will be a fun weekend rain, snow or shine!
