I'm one disabled woman, with 2 hoes, 2 shovels & 4 bags of alternative covercrop seeds. Determined to create more backyard spaces to increase our homegrown food security 👩‍🌾
I can do it. Slowly.

Just got an update. Another disabled sailor canceled their July 29th morning sail. I just jumped on the open booking.
Back out on the ocean, Monday morning 😀⛵️

Excellent 2nd #AdaptiveSailing session today! My instructor today, Kate, is very knowledgeable & keen to help me learn more so I can enter future Mobility Cup regattas. I manned sailboat for almost full session today & she gave me guidance only when needed. There was more breezes so we didn't need to be towed out or back. My next session is on August 4th 😊⛵️

Lunching with Mom on back deck before we get some gardening tasks done 👩‍🌾 Heading to the Indigenous Music Festival around 5:30pm 🎶🎵 Hampton Park is only 5 minutes from our home & starts at 6pm.

We only got a bit of wind for my first sailing session but Friday forecast calls for cooler temps & more wind on waters. I'll be able to move the sailboat faster! I can try out more tacking & keeling moves. Was able to pick up enough wind, out on open ocean, to keel the sailboat a few times & got waves rushing on/over the gunnels. That was fun & exciting!

From Sunday. We got towed out by Zodiac boat because there was zero wind in the harbour.

I'm overly excited about getting back into #AdaptiveSailing tomorrow morning! I'm out on waters at 10 AM. I'm going to arrive early as I'm not familiar with the marina setup there. It's my first time back at #ParaSailing in 10 yrs. I used to train with disabled sailing association Victoria before it was disbanded. I'm now learning with Able Sail Victoria.
