Building
a Boat in your Backyard!
In
1974, my sister Roxanne and her
husband, Jeannot invited me to
build a ferro-cement boat and
sail it to Tahiti. In 1976 we
put The Nausicaa into the water
in Marina Del Rey, California.
Two weeks later, we set sail for
Tahiti, via Catalina (a small
island 22 miles off the coast of
L.A.)
Everything
that could go wrong - did.
A
trip which normally takes around
21 days ended up taking 42 days.
This was due to losing use of
our Main Mast as well as losing
the engine. Our hydrolic
steering system broke and so we
had to tie two ropes to the
rudder and pulled on them, one
side or the other, to steer.
As
a young 20 year old, I went a
bit stir crazy, totally
convinced that we would never
make it.
These
are the experiences I have built
into the story of Beyond
The Road
Most
of the things described in Beyond
the Road, actually
happened.

Choice
Do
we really have a choice? How
often do we exercise it?
I
woke up this morning, said "Hi"
to Angel (Ani's cat) and opened
the door for her. I had a drink
of water, put my coffee maker on
the stove and sat down to find
out what is happening on the
outside by looking through my
window to the world which is my
laptop. I wouldn't want to miss
anything!
I
checked out Facebookland, my
emails, my calendar, booksales,
what's on tv tonight, etc. Then
I realized that I was falling
into a trance. I knew from past
experience that this trance
could last for hours and only
when I came out of it would I
fathom how much time had gone
by.
In
that moment I woke up, so to
speak, to the fact that just
outside my door was a beautiful
morning. The sun was shining, a
cool breeze was blowing, and
about five minutes walk away,
was one of the most beautiful
beaches in the world!
Sound
too good to be true? I know! And
yet here I was trying to decide
whether to stay where I was,
staring at a computer screen, or
go for a walk/run along the
beach. I can't believe I even
had to think about it? I mean,
what is there to think about?
And yet ... something was saying
to me, "Don't worry about that
beach, it'll be there tomorrow.
If you go out, you'll have to
put clothes on, get a hat out of
the car, find your shoes - what
a hassle!"
Well,
I'm happy to report to you that
I made the right choice this
time. But it really made me
think, "how often do we have
choices, which seem like
no-brainers, and yet we still
fall into our old patterns and
choose the easy or comfortable
or routine - the rut?"
And
it's not just about what you do
each day, if you go to a job
everyday, you may not have a lot
of choice about that. But, you
can choose whether you amble
through the day in a trance, or
you dance through the day in
joy.
Do
you ignore the people you pass
on the street or do you smile at
them and say 'hello!'. It's
surprising how many people
respond to a smile with a smile,
even when they look so far away
from a smile in the first place.
How
are you going to choose to live
your life today? There are no
second chances, this is it!

I have been
travelling the U.S. for the past
four months. I started with a
weekend in San Francisco at a
conference given by The
Authentic Man Program all about
connecting with people on a deep
level. That really set the tone
for the rest of my adventure!
It's a beautiful feeling when
you can open your heart and
really "get" someone's world.
Next was a week
in Las Vegas at a magic
convention. After being blown
away by some of the worlds
greatest magicians for a week,
my brain needed a serious rest!
I met my love
partner, Tilly, in Palm Springs
and we drove to Northern
California, visiting some
amazing sights including:
Salvation Mountain, Death
Valley, Amargosa, Redwood
forests, and so much more!
I also had a
week in Hawaii where I swam with
a bale of giant turtles and, in
another instance, a pod of about
50 dolphins in the open sea.
You can see a
vid of the dolphins
here!
I'm currently on
Orcas Island in Washington
State, visiting my family. It's
an amazingly beautiful place and
I feel so grateful to be here!
One more week in
Las Vegas for another magic
convention, and then I will be
back in Oz where I plan to
finalize the new book!
I have been
working on "Beyond the Road"
sproadically during my travels
and intend on sending it to the
printer by late June! It seems
that every experience I have
been having tempers my beliefs
and the things I am writing
about. The universe just keeps
putting stuff in front of me and
says, "What about this?"
As a celebration
of the upcoming release, I am
offering free shipping anywhere
in the world for "The Roadless
Traveller" right up until
"Beyond the Road" comes out.
I will also be
offering a pre-release special
for "Beyond" soon, so watch this
space!
You can see pics
from my travels by friending me
on Facebook. Click
here to open a new window of
that page. And don't
forget to "like" The
Roadless Traveller page! You
can find that here, or you
can click the "like" button on
the home page of this website.
Happy Friday the
13th tomorrow!
