History is such an important and interesting thing, but the physical artifacts left behind are quickly disappearing. Finding a location like this is really amazing, because it is like looking right back in history to a time that not that long ago, but so foreign to todays populations. Homesteading is a chapter in the lives of so many of our ancestors, and something spoken fondly of by those with a memory of childhood in a homestead family, but the modern "homestead" trend is far from the struggle faced back in the day. The knowledge of living from the land, fixing and building the things you need, raising livestock... Imaging how rewarding that lifestyle would have been! I imaging at the time, the sheer amount of work and struggle to maintain that life, would have trumped the enjoyment, but for me it has always seemed like something I could really enjoy. For today, just finding this location and getting to explore around is enough enjoyment for me. :)
On the topic of history, lets talk about this new backup outboard. lol
I have been really thinking of adding a small backup motor to the operation, because some of these Ocean trips are getting pretty far from civilization. I think a 2.5 hp would be the ultimate size, but space is a limitation for me. Never the less, a small backup outboard is sure a lot better than no backup outboard, so she will do the trick. :)
