Waiting Families

If you had to live on an RV or sailboat for the rest of your life, which would it be?

"A sailboat, or any boat in general. My family grew up with a boat and being "on the water" is where I feel the most at peace. During the summer, we actually lived on our boat and "sailed" from one marina to the next in the New York and New England area where we were able to see many different towns and boating communities. The sea air is freeing and calming. From a young age, my parents have instilled the importance of boating and water safety. Swimming and boating lessons were a necessity if we were to be on the water as a family. Being on the water isn't just an activity, it is an experience and to this day, brings me so much excitement. I also love boating because I know that this is an activity that Jackie also loves, as her family has generations of fisherman. Although we do not have a boat now, we hope to carry on our families boating traditions. We still enjoy water activities such as kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, and just sitting at the beach, enjoying the sun and waves." - Caroline

What scares you?

Favorite season and why?

"It's got to be summer! I feel like most of my favorite events and memorie are from summer- be it family reunions and camping trips, to outdoor concerts, or just picking berries and reading a book in the back yard.
