Chance Along: a Wind Worth Waiting for Christina Salisbury

YOUR OWN SCHOONER?JUST A WILD DREAM? Not for Tina and Kirby who discovered the recipe that makes it possible for ordinary people to do extraordinary things. Though revealed while building and sailing a wooden boat, their insights are universal and pertain to every creative endeavor. This book will inspire anyone who has a dream. Numerous photographs, lyrical passages and poems will whisk you away to the tropics and immerse you in this adventurous love story. You can smell the resinous pine as the shavings curl from Kirby?s plane and feel the texture of mahogany as Tina carves the figurehead. You are anxious during the unorthodox launch and tense during the storms, but you are soon relaxed on the afterdeck where you can hear the rumble of the Belizean reef, feel the balm of the sea breeze and taste the salty spray. Chance Along: A Wind Worth Waiting For is the second book of their intended three-part memoir. Treehouse Perspectives: Living High On Little was published in 2009 and describes the first ten years of their adventurous lives in the tropics. In both books the Salisbury?s share with us a unique point of view gained from their years of living closely with Nature in what they refer to as the ?real world.? These books encourage us to add quality to our lives through simplification, commitment and creativity. They give us the confidence to pursue our own aspirations.
