Welcome to the San Juan Islands. They are awesome! Those trees are madronas or madrones. Hard wood for sure. So enjoy! I'm down on Vashon Island which is just south west of Seattle. PNW rocks! Cheers!
I actually get emotional watching you guys for these past several years! Such a beautiful love story!! How's that from a grumpy old guy whose lost some loves in his life??!! Cheers to your ongoing chapters in this short journey on this beautiful planet!! -Perry
What a heart warming sentiment☺️
@@6gorks Thank you! I'm just a sucker for a true love story!! It's nice to see in this crazy world!
Just don't stocj them.
Those trees with the reddish bark are madrona.
Jetty is such a good dog!
You guys are or Should I say were in one of the most beautiful places to sail, cruise or just be on the water in some form,, we have been out to the San Juan islands three times back in the early 2000’s visiting friends of ours that lived in New York and retired out on Orcas Island , we took many trips through the inside passage up to The port city of Nanaimo and across from there up into prince Louise sound to chatterbox Falls 🙌🙌🙌absolutely gorgeous boating!!! But being from the Fort Lauderdale area, the Bahamas also is our true tropical paradise 👌🥃🥃⛵️⚓️⚓️
You thank us. We thank you. We love truck camping and pulling our pontoon boat all over the USA. I wish I knew how to sail.
I have to say Sara your smile is bigger than ever. And Jetty's. But you all suit being on the water, and I'm so glad your back on it.
great seeing you guys back in your element! Stay safe and have fun Tula Team! Great episode! Thanks for taking us along for the adventure!! 👍👍👊👊⛵⛵
You should see it in the summer. Its a paradise here.
As a dog whisper I want to tell you Jetty says thank you for the new collar and beautiful name tag. She would have barked louder at the man on the shore but she had to go to the bathroom to bad from holding it all night. LOL Sierra I love your new boots/shoes, they look nice, warm, waterproof, and comfy. Billy I am proud of you now that you are learning and getting browny points along the way by saying Sierra is a better boat driver, good move, especially if you messed up earlier. LOL. Sierra that was a funny comment about saying it is better or safer now knowing you have new engines. That was quite the challenge Billy took on rebuilding the one and I understand why you went home until he was finished. LOL Just picking. Love y’all three and your videos. Have fun. 👍🙏😎✌️
As fun as it was to see all the cool spots crossing the country by road. I am so happy for you guys to be back on the water. Cue Orcas!
Even Jetty seams visibly happier to be back on the water! 😀
Congratulations! What a beautiful day to remember.... Adventure lies ahead! Enjoy your most beautiful day!
Not sure who is more thrilled being back on the water, Sierra or Jetty. Welcome to the "wet" coast.
my dog loves watching your channel! keep up the good work! he hangs with me til I am caught up and then hangs out outside!
San Juan islands is one of the best spots in the country, absolutely no doubt. I went for my birthday a few years back, and if you luck out with weather, you will have the best time in your life. It's so quiet, and its gorgeous. Make sure to go Kayaking out in the water, its amazing!
Love the PNW! I lived there for 4 years. Love your videos and thrilled your thrilled about being there. I’ll visit there again one day. I’ve been to Friday harbor there. It was nice.
I have been in the San Juan islands before. My wife’s Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles were from Seattle. On a visit we went up the islands they are Beautiful. I would love to go back and do a sailing adventure like you’re doing now. Thank you for taking us along.
Hey Billy and Sierra, welcome to our neighborhood. I've lived in the San Juans for over 50 years and every time I'm out on the water in our 34ft. CHB trawler (or at home with our view of Mt. Baker and the ferry arriving in Friday Harbor) I'm in heaven! I've followed your sea adventures since the beginning and so glad you had a chance to see our boating world on the Left Coast! Cozy Afloat
What a relief to see you guys back on the water
That is one heck of a cheeseburger you made. Excellent choice for cooking asparagus. Beautiful scenery. I used to live along the shore of northern California and during November, the winter storm waves start rolling in. If you're in the Pacific northwest (California) during the first week of December, the fishing fleets cast off for Dungeness crab. The ocean is covered with lighted boats on the water. It's also fishing season for salmon.
I’m so glad your sailing again. You two just look so happy.
I love the fall and spring here
Absolutely awesome episode! The storytelling, the videography, the area, the boat, Jetty, the food, and of course you guys - just everything is superb! Looking forward to more.... Thanks!
You guys look so happy! And we are so happy for you! We love yr videos, thanks for making them. 💞
Seawind windows provide a open feeling even from inside the hulls. Glad Ya'll are back on the water.
I wouldn't have thought your amazing Videography could have gotten better, but this one! THIS one is even more beautiful! Great job. From the grandeur of the forested mountains to the dog drying it's face - every second was great.
very cool episode! Capt Jetty having a blast!...and genuine big smiles from the rest of the crew!, San Juan's/environs are so unique and beautiful- thanks for inviting us aboard!!
Lots of edible mushrooms out in those woods. Love madrona trees. The bark peels off during the summer. Great hardwood for wood stoves. I have lived near the Puget Sound and Hood Canal for 33 years and always missed visits from the orcas. Lots of bald eagles though.
You two look so happy back on a boat! Love seeing you two so happy and the scenery is fantastic!
You guys have such a great outlook on life. That permanent smile of Sierras is so infectious.
Welcome to the PNW, it's been our secret for awhile. The rain stories keep most away but were always proud to show off this beautiful state. If you keep heading north through the inside passage it just gets mind blowing. Summers are usually very crowded at anchorages, but the fall and early spring are our favorite times to sail. Salmon, muscles & crab are abundant. So glad you are enjoying the area and hope to see you guys out there sometime.
Long time subscribers of Tula and Florida native and saltwater addict! Sierra you are absolutely right! We vacationed in the San Juan Islands 14 years ago. Amazingly beautiful there. We got to see the Orcas at Lime Kiln Lighthouse! Amazing and waaay underrated vacation destination! Glad you both enjoyed it as much as we did!!
A great privilege for me was to have "Ruffles", a well known male Orca, spy hop next to me when I was in a Sea Kayak. He was no more then 12 feet away from me. Sadly we have not seen Ruffles in a long while. But the diverse wildlife of the San Juans is extraordinary. It is so fun to watch you take it all in for the first time.
Love this video! First time I experienced the San Juan’s was thirty years ago! Was blown away also. For folks that don’t have a boat you can still visit. Washington State Ferry System serves the main islands of San Juan, Lopez and Orcas. Your timing was excellent as it can be busy in the summer. Thanks for posting! 🦭🐋🦐⚓️🛳
Continue to enjoy one of the most beautiful places on earth. Jen seems to really have fun running around, wish I was there! Good sailing cheers!
Great videos guys. Love seeing the sailing in a completely different environment. Keep it up, cheers from Miami!
Glad to hear you like our backyard. Our family has been boating this coast for generations and are always happy to come home to it. If you can, get up into Canadian waters towards Desolation Sound. The beaches are full of oysters and clams and the water actually gets warm.
You need to find a gravel beach to get oysters. Head south into Hood Canal (by car) and you will find lots of oyster beaches. The trees with the reddish peeling bark are Madrone trees. You will only find them near salt water. If you like the San Juans, your NEED to go up into BC. Desolation Sound and the inside passage are incredible. Also you should hop over to Port Townsend when you et off the boat.
You're in my home cruising grounds for the past 40 years. Reid & Prevost are two of our favorites, the SP on Jones is another one. But the best area is the Canadian Gulf Islands and north to Desolation Sound and the Broughton Archipelago.
Great to see you back underway!
Great place to transition from the road. Best of both worlds.
Even Jetty looked happy to be back on the water.
Love this channel more every year. Love that we get to tag along on your adventures, whether on land or water. Man, you guys are living the life.
Just a really sweet view of a charmed and charming life. Really enjoyed this video.
I just bought a 5K Lg 34" monitor..to watch your videos in true 4K is absolutely amazing! I feel immersed in the scenery. Love the videos!!!
Great video! Thanks for sharing your adventure with us 🥰
So beautiful and yes emotional. Full of hope and beauty, in our troubled world. So thankyou
We live in North Idaho now and boat on huge Lake Pend Orielle now. We are hoping to trailer our boat back to the San Juan Islands this summer! We spent our honeymoon boating there in 1974.
Another amazing vid guys. Love that you share you adventurous with us. Also, Now that was a Burger. Take care.
Thanks for the tour guys! We recently moved to the PNW and may need to charter a San Juan Seawind as we explore our new region.
I LOVE the PNW. Absolutely stunning😍
Yes, recycling oyster shells are extremely important! thanks for caring for our environment
It looks like you guys just found yourselves on a sailing adventure in the middle of pure natural beauty. At the moment very different from what all the other TH-cam sailing families are doing. stay groovy and stay safe.
I've been missing you two. Last August through October I was in the hospital surviving Covid. I loved watching yours and other similar videos as I recovered,
Jetty's going to have a nice spot to view the food making.
Great video.... endless smiles, love it....
Amazing Episode , thats Life , be grateful you can enjoy such a Life em so jealous
Love seeing a big channel in our part of the world! Nice work guys
I would love to hear the status of your new boat and love that you guys are back on the water!
So crazy to see you in my area! We just bought a place in Florida and go back and forth. Great to see you loving it here as much as we love Florida
So glad you are going to Stuart Island. Spent a whole summer there fixing up a cabin. Did lots of sailing, diving and exploring the island. Took lots of B vitamins to keep the biting bugs away. Meet an old guy living in small cabin named Little Wolf. A legend during the rum running days. You guys brought back so many awesome memories ❤ Thank you so much and looking forward to each episode 😀
Wpw when I was there in mid 80's no one was there. Such a beautiful island and good to see so many others enjoying it. ❤
Those are dogwoods only found in the Pacific Northwest . Or Arbutus Trees found on the Islands. My wife and I will be moving to the Pacific Northwest when we retire in 2 years.
The tree you asked about are Madrona..they burn hot and long,great for wood burning stoves.Welcome to the San Juan islands, yes, oysters although not many..known for abalone,sea urchins,rock crab,puget sound king crab, Ling cod, kelp greening, rockfish,lingcod,salmon,wolf eel,mussels...it's a great place for scuba and snorkeling best visibility is winter....I dove the islands for years.Have fun...if you dive while your there just dive on slack water or have a third person to operate the boat for pick up.
The trees you weren’t sure of on the hiking trail are Pacific Madrone. Welcome to the PNW!!
You guys go to some beautiful places but that was something truly special.
East Coast! Let's hear it for Oklahoma! I was hanging out catching your vid and found myself smiling! Thank you simply beautiful! -sue
The red barked trees are Arbutis. Known in USA as Pacific Madron. Related to blueberries. If you like the San Wan's, definitely explore coastal BC and Alaska too.
I actually missed you guys so much.. I even decided not to watch your land adventures.. But, this Ep made me happy.. You guys belong to the sea.. You belong to the mother ocean... Loads of love from India..
What a GREAT dog!
Awesome video! Now I have to go there.
great video. I am sold and need to get out there. I hear the scuba diving is amazing as well
Those trees are Madrone, they are the most favored firewood for wood stoves as they burn very clean, low ash. @ 20:23, that is just beautiful!
Spectacular place! Great video. I could smell the burgers and asparagus!
So awesome that you are catching good weather. We've been out there 4 times, never saw orca's. I think your best bet is when you are out west of San Juan island.
Good to see you guys excited and now I'm hangry lol
So nice to see you guys on the water sailing on a boat just like the one you will own,also congrats on your up coming wedding Cheers Johnny B
We love seeing you explore our backyard!!! We are moving to Florida in 2 weeks and we will miss this!!
Wish you would have picked prevost over Reid harbor.....so peaceful and beautiful
WOW, such a beautiful spot! Nothing beats burgers on a boat, except maybe grilled asparagus and bacon! 👍
Wow thanks for showing us I love it
The trees that you were looking at that have the reddish trunks are called Madrone. You are correct the area known as the San Juan Islands and the gulf islands are a treasure for those of us in the Northwest. Although as you pointed out in the summer we don’t get a lot of wind we do get beautiful weather and scenery. Although August and end of September around here is referred to as Fogust. We get a lot of fog.I enjoy your videos very much thank you for the virtual ride
They have the Best Summers there!
Super interesting to hear those orange/red trees with papery bark called "madrone" trees. Up in in BC we call them Arbutus trees. Very specialized to grow within a few kilometres of the ocean. Seem to really need the salt air. Great videos.
Great video guys! So glad you are enjoying the San Juans. Too bad the border was closed and you didn't have more time. The Canadian Gulf Islands and further north into Desolation sound is even better (in my biased opinion).... Love to see you back on the water, although I love all of your videos.
Great video you guys!!!
We have been stationed here in Washington since April 2018 and are about to have to move to Mississippi.
I love Puget Sound and the San Juan Islands. But one of the things I will miss the most are the whales specifically the orcas (southern residents and transients). There is nothing like seeing them in the wild.
And those pretty trees are called madronas.
Thanks for sharing😃.
Great episode & what a delightful area :)
On another sailing channel called Breaking Waves the have had great cruising videos of that area. Worth checking out if you haven’t already. I was lucky to have spent 2 nights on top of a mountain called 3 Fingers that overlooks the whole Puget sound way back in the 70s. I will never forget those sunsets.
Thanks!!
No problem! You have some stunning video of the north west, love your channel👍
It's so fun watching you guys get blown away by our west coast. This is where I grew up cruising and exploring. Those red trees with the peeling bark are called "Arbutus" trees and they're pretty synonymous over here. It's too bad you only had 6 days because you could spend a lifetime up and down the PNW. I'm on the Canadian side and as interesting as the San Juan's are the gulf islands are equally amazing. Montague Harbour is a great place with the "mushroom rocks" and the "Indian caves" and the fishing and prancing and shellfish are legendary.
OMG, you didn't bring bananas on a boat did you? Lol. My first trip out on the commercial fishboats is broke two of the superstitions you never do. I brought a black cd case full of cd's on board. Then one night I went to bed to find all my cd's strewn on my bed and the case was never seen again. Then we went grocery shopping and I grabbed a bunch of bananas but for some reason they never made it to the check out. Lmao.
Those trees are Arbutus… they’re really beautiful!
Your wedding is coming soon so happy for u both u so sweet together ❤ I love jetty she cute .lovely little family.enjoy al the blessings coming you way .love u both so much ye both so genuine . Secaria you be a stunning bride u so so pretty live u best life xxxmaggs from Ireland 🇮🇪xxx
I can't wait till you have the new boat seeing both of you so happy makes my day you are both great and deserve the best life has to offer orca hint hint
Beautiful area for cruising.
Beautiful thanks for share
You're heros !
Beautiful place! I love hearing that the climate is like New England but the islands are like the Bahamas. And there are whales. Inspiring. I watch about 15 sailing channels with folks going all over the world. My wife's from WA, I'm from the northeast, and we started our married life in Miami. But I think if we do a charter, I'll vote for the San Juan islands rather than the Keys or Bahamas.
Nice seeing ya'll Back on the water! I didn't like the camper thing much.
Love to know more about your New Boat and when and where are ya'll going to get it.
Ok until next time Aloha from the Big Island of Hawaii.
AlOHA !! from Vancouvet Island. Looking forward to your 1160.
You make me smile. ✌️
Welcome to my back yard the Salish Sea (aka Puget Sound). Nothing to see here, Orca attacks every day, no wind, bad currents... ;)
Madrona Trees are glorious. As are the San Juan’s. So excited you took that route! I don’t get the water view very often. Thanks for your Journey’s✨✨💫⭐️🌎✌️✌️✌️❤️❤️❤️🌄🌌👀🦭🦝🦔🐿🦨🦌🐕🦐🦀🦖🦖🐋orca…..
We call them Arbutus trees on Vancouver Island!
@@paulanias7706 in Seattle Wa. a Pacific Madrone is Arbutus Menziesii🤐Same Tree
Sierra looks so much happier on a boat than in a camper. Either way we love your vids.
The trees are Arbutus trees. Native to coastal Pacific Northwest. Don’t grow above 49th parallel.
madrona trees... welcome to the NW.. From Sequim Wa
Amazing !
