RE: Admiring Without Desiring

in Inner Blocks3 years ago

I like it that there are other boat dwellers there, saw more than one boat lined up in the photo. Is it very remote where you are? I wonder that since you said you only pop into towns occasionally (heaven in my mind). Did you do a post showing what it's like living on a longboat that you could link me with? I always find these alternative ways of living fascinating. So many choices. I have not seen a longboat before. I'm so curious, lol.

Whatever is meant to be for me is where I walk, so just waiting on my intuition to give me the nod for the right direction.

My pleasure reading your post, you're welcome! 💖

Oh, yes! I have done a few specific posts about life on the canals. Here are a few of them. It's different everyday because we are continuous cruisers exploring over 2000 miles of the English waterways.
I hope you get an idea from these posts:)

Thanks very much @millycf1976! I'm going to enjoy reading these. So you get to cruise around on over 2000 miles of waterways. Okay, I love that even more being a total water person. Heavenly! 😄

You're very welcome! Yes, over 200 miles😁 and we can choose any idyllic spot we like to moor.
It's awesome:)

It must be awesome, I can imagine the freedom and peace.

Indeed! Every day😊🙏

I'm reading your posts now and enjoying. Love the long narrow set up. 😄

Our boat is one of the shorter ones, only 28ft. The boats go as long as 70ft, but that length is restricted from going everywhere.
We will upgrade to a longer narrowboat in the future. Nothing longer than 57ft though. The 57 ft boat is the maximum length that does through all locks (the system that takes boat to different levels, like climbing up or down a hill).
