Nice pics. And none from the water side? Where are all the sailors gone?

Gone sailing. Off wifi range ;-)))

Whenever I wake up, look outside and all I can see is them waves and more waves and NO LAND in sight, well, that's what I call my paradise.

A house with a view? My boat anchored? Well, maybe when I get old.

This was out of our companionway instead of our "window". It would have been a great shot tonight if those powerboats weren't in the way..! Just kiddin', we really like our new slip. This is Everett, WA- 12th Street Yacht Basin.

The first ones are sun rises out of the kitchen window. The last two are the first sunset from a newly purchased boat.

I took this picture through my back patio doors about 10:00 this morning. However, the scenery has changed since then as today was finally splash day! Now my view is of a large square patch of very dead grass!

I don't think that's what it says on the screen...Just checked my location via Iphone and I am still on St Thomas, not on my Bomby Clipper at the moment.

Bill ..You missed the whole point of the thread...This is for every one..Liveaboards to Apartment dwellers..Some are lucky enough to be waking up in paradise as there own self definition of it anyway...for the rest of us were still dreaming of that day.
This is just a thread to share what that current view looks like...

We are all sure welcoming the Paradise views that are being posted buy some as well... It has nothing to do what so ever as to owing a house and not living on a boat..by water , mountains or anything else

Come on you Curmudgeon you.....Post up that view you wake up to looking out your Companion way then and quit your grumbling...all us CLOD's...well.... were all envious...

Pictures don't have to be of a Sunrise..just what you wake up to and stare out your windows, ports or Companionways everyday...If that changes daily,weekly monthly ..Lucky you!!..and Keep posting the changes!..
