Alaskan Escape
I’D WORKED FEARLESSLY ALONGSIDE MY HUSBAND, THEN FEAR GRIPPED ME IN A HOLD I WAS DESPERATE TO ESCAPE.
When an accident forces us to change our livelihood, my husband, Bill, suggests our family of seven embark on a commercial fishing venture in Southeast Alaska. Though life on an ocean vessel sounds challenging, it may answer our prayers for financial stability.
Alaskan waters are captivating, beautiful, and abound in opportunities to teach our growing family. Yet, the chaotic, ever-changing environment grinds with my obsession for safety and pensive personality. We find ourselves left in the wake of failure and unanswered questions. Amid the turmoil, I fight to find my role in keeping the family afloat.
When given a second chance to succeed with our own boat, will my family and marriage break deep when waves of despair rush in filling me with doubt? Or will we find the reserves to weather the storm?
