Yes, risk taking is inherently failure-prone. Otherwise, it would be called sure-thing-taking. -- Tim McMahon

This is it.

There is no going back. This one is for all the marbles. Tomorrow afternoon, Marc and I will be hopping onboard the "Wild Abandon," and from here on in for the next three weeks, we hope to shoot the most amazing footage possible. We've packed our things already into the sailboat, we've worked out the kinks of our shoot, and the best is yet to come. The first leg was but a taste.

I can already foresee the "green" stories along the way. The benefits to sailboat travel... the story behind Haida Gwaii's Watchmen... a possible visit to a bakery powered by wind energy... a trip on the "Lootaas, - Wave Eater" (famous dugout canoe), an amazing eco-friendly kayaking excursion... a mishmash of opinions on green travel from a variety of "Edge of the World" music festival patrons... a 120 kilometer bike ride through Massett, Tow Hill, and North Beach.

My friends, I believe we are onto something big. But it all falls on the next few days and weeks ahead. Wish us luck, send a prayer to the weather gods, and send us some Karma. I promise to deliver something special.
