About

AlohaWe are Wags & Paula. Our story began in Jacksonville, FL, where we met. One day on the beach, Wags proposed the idea of sailing around the world. Paula didn’t run away and the seed was sown. Over the next 22 years, we worked, saved and planned to make that dream a reality. Wags retired after a career as a Naval Aviator in 2015 and Paula followed in 2016, leaving behind her Marketing career. Now, we’ve set sail for new and exciting destinations and experiences. We look forward to sharing them with you!

  1. Happy New Year – 2020! WTF, crazy! We got your card again, thanks! We love them but aren’t so good at getting our own out. We just came back from Upstate NY. We are putting the finishing touches on our garage out there and had a delightful drive back through Chicago snow and North Dakota temperatures… We had taken one of our dogs out there with us. Do you guys check your earthlink email still? How do we send you some pictures? Fair winds and following seas! Love your adventure!

  5. Paula and Wags, as Charleston Heston said, “They finally did it!” Congrats on the journey. Kristina and I were just thinking of you. We are up the coast from you at Whistler in the sun and snow right now. Fair winds and following seas! Domer and Kristina
