The Viking Rose
| Welcome to Our Dream The seeds for this adventure were planted soon after September 11th, 2001 as we gathered a group of friends over the blessings of fine wine and delicious food and discussed what the future would bring. As so many of us were questioning the state of the world and of mankind, thoughts of what we wanted to accomplish in our finite existence needed to be verbalized. Many flamboyant ideals were tossed across the table that evening. We both found that sailing and travel were important to us and talked of how we would handle the challenge of learning a new way of life upon the sea. Thoughts of a simpler life style, existing closer to nature would have a calming effect and would hold fulfilling promise. We were not a couple at the time but having been connected by life circumstances and mutual friends for many years, our lives did blend together eventually and the rest is a fairy tale come true. We feel truly blessed to have found each other and to have the ability and resources to make the dream a reality. We have found the beginning of this adventure all that we had hoped for and look forward to each new chapter. We hope you enjoy our journey. May all your dreams become a reality also. It truly is possible. Penny and Richard Beesley |
