Thanks Brittany and Drew. Please look after yourselves and each other. Keep being and allowing yourselves to truly be you. Keep connections. Reach out if you are ever struggling.
Thank you guys. I leave in SF and visit Sausalito often. This houseboats never seized to fascinate me. Thank you for bringing me in with you😍 Full of information that I would not have found on my own! I’ll call waiting for your next vlog🙏❤️🙏
Hey guys....the elder adventurers here. We ran into some health problems...so haven't been faithful commentors for a bit. We had to leave our home of 25 years...you know....the one overlooking the ferry in Anacortes. We are renters now...see, another new adventure before our final one. We always share your more active adventures and gratefully so. Just want to say...if you decide to rent a houseboat....there are others....not so $$$ as Sausalito...We always wanted to try one in Seattle but missed the opportunity. Many are on lakes, some on rivers, yet still close to cities and/or nature. What fun to start researching again. (Recliner Babe and her Handsome Prince.)
Oh my goodness!! This was such a great video, you two! I loved everything about it, and meeting Dave was wonderful! He was chock full of info and such a natural in front of the camera- I was completely engrossed in all he had to share, and same with Maria! I can totally see you and Drew living there! What a cool community!
That is SO FANTASTIC! Having lived in the Bay for over 20 years, I can't believe I wasn't aware of that amazing community of people and their historic past! AWESOME!!!!
That was one of my favorite things about Amsterdam, was the cool house boats on the Canals! Very cool idea! Great video, and thank you for showing me something new, and taking me with on this cool adventure!
@@elgringoec He had just come in to the Bay Area and was staying on Liberty Dock. Lots of musical history in that area including the Plant where many famous recordings were made including Fleetwood Mac albums.
@@stephanieburns4560 That's fascinating, I never paid attention to that. I remember auditioning HiFi equipment in the seventies when a seemingly knowledgeable salesman described their recordings (from a technical aspect) as having "that British sound". I never delved into the specifics but fell in love with the music and the soundscape. I have a dozen or more of their albums both on the original records and again later on CD. Looking on Wikipedia at the album "Rumours" specifically (truly iconic), look how many places are listed for the production of the album (none British by the way): Criteria, Miami Record Plant, Sausalito and Los Angeles Zellerbach Auditorium, Berkeley Wally Heider, San Francisco Davlen, North Hollywood 🤯 Cheers!
The community feel on the dock reminds me of when we lived on our little sailboat about 20 years ago on the west coast of Canada. It was smaller than spirit, but took us to beautiful, rugged, natural islands and back. Loved that time.
I’ve been by this area so many times and it’s so cool to see it up close and personal! Thank you for taking us along and showing us the progression over time. Love the interviews!
Is there anyone that doesn’t breathe with you, and enjoy the moment every. single. time. ?!?!? ❤️ My anxiety has reached new heights recently, and your calm voice and presence in your videos is much appreciated.
Love this video !!, You guys fit right in ! So natural for you both, and you can live in your van until you get the place set. Thanks for taking us along such a Rich journey of Love, Acceptance, Philosophy, Art, and Academia. Can't wait to see what's next 💗🚐🌸👍
Welcome to my "neck of the woods!". Actually I live just north of Sausalito in Petaluma. My cousins own the Venice Deli on the main street, so if you're in the neighborhood, stop by. I've never actually been inside that community so it was so fun to watch the tour. There's another houseboat community further south in the Bay Area in Redwood City, it's called Pete's Harbour. It's probably less expensive, but no where near the community feel of Sausalito. If you guys can swing it, what a great place to land!
Love, love, love!! I, too, could see myself living on a houseboat. There are houseboat communities here in Canada, some on the West coast, some on the East Coast however I doubt they have such an illustrious history. I will have to find out. Thanks for sharing!
Planning our family summer vacation where we circumvent America, mainly boondocking, but also utilizing NPS (Access Pass) campsites. From Cincinnati to Seattle, to California, to the Keys, and back home. Hitting Portland Maine this Spring Break, and lots of various sight seeing along the way.
Great job capturing the spirit of this magical place. It is SO true that after a lifestyle of relative freedom like VANLIFE you cannot go back to city or suburban life. I am two years in as a solo female nomad and checking out options just as you are... Everything old is new again, and free thinkers are open to the possibilities.
This was a fascinating episode. I had no idea that a community like this existed! Thank you for (once again) broadening my horizons!!! Good vibes & blessings to you both!!!
I loved that place. Having been a member of the Hippie genre and hitching here and there, I was in California a lot, but never got to Sal Salido, although I did spend bit of time in San Francisco. California-loved the bay. In the late 60's and 70's Southern CA was the place to be. Met a lot of incredible and talented people there. I miss it. Thank you so much for this film. It's a part of the history I lived through.
So cool that you have found your way to the houseboats. Many, many moons ago, I made my way there. Heavily influenced at the time by Stewart Brand and the Whole Earth movement. No matter where you land, it's a wonderful region to live; welcome to NorCal, Mr. and Mrs. A!
Great Video. We know a couple that me met RV'ing and they just sold their beautiful houseboat that was on main dock. We got a nice tour of the houseboat community while they still lived there. I could enjoy living there and taking advantage of all the nice things in the bay area. Will be following you to see what your next living arrangement is. We full time rv'ed for 6 years and ended up in Prescott, AZ, a little over 2 years ago, which gives us access to the mountains and deserts and only 90 minutes to Sedona as well.
Oh wow! Looks like more of your environment! Stimulation. Unique. Community involved. Boho with a crown! You both would be such an asset to that community! 🙏🌊
I enjoyed watching your video and I grew up in Sausalito in which I believe is the "hidden gem" of the Bay Area. The gentleman that was interviewed is a very knowledgeable guy and has a "great attitude"!!!
Absolutley loved the e-bike with the basket in front. What a creative design of blending the past with the future. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful micro world of a truly unique and creative community.
I so enjoyed all this info.plus seeing inside some of the house boats. My all time favorite is a 2 story that aired on tiny house owned by a woman that met her bf while sitting on deck having wine. I love her home and her story. Most people here in TN.keep there large pontoon house boats in slips but stay in them all summer. Me I have a camper but I'd give it up for this option. Alot cheaper here to live on the water a year than that place. Alot cheaper to live anywhere you want in TN. No ocean but some good lakes.
Wow - I had no idea of the history of this. I had been there years ago and I loved it. Even after living on a boat for close to 30 years (after those few visits to Sausalito) I’d live on one of those in a heartbeat! What a fun one 😝
Thank you guys that was really enjoyable. I used to live in Corte Madera real close to Sausalito and it was neat to see my old area. I have lived on a sailboat before and another big boat so I kind of get what they were saying about living on the water. Seattle has huge houseboat communities. Blessings to you Good luck in your search It's fun too follow along with you. Karree
Looks like a great place to live. Setting on the dock at night visiting we everyone sounds like that would be so much fun. Celebrating all the holidays by boat or by paddleboard-so much fun. If you went on a trip in your van you would have neighbors to look after your home.
I lived in San Francisco in the 80's and know this place. I almost did the same thing. I don't why he exagerated so much making it sound like skid row. But it's not?! You would love it there. Good luck on your search.
Brittany and Drew....I loved this. I am a history buff. Plus , Danny and I talked about getting a houseboat....Only one serious problem....I get seasick when its calm.
Amazing place, used to live across the road and landscape for a woman that lived in one of those boats, The Rose Lady Suzanne Z... Marin is like a magic wonderland with the forest, bay and ocean...
LOVE this episode! For the longest time I had dreamed of living on a houseboat. This brought a lot of perspective into the realities. Not everything is ‘sleepless in Seattle’! 😊 loved the spirit of the community tho. There’ve been many a Stone-Soup meal that I’ve instigated. 😉🥴😉
That was a fascinating video! Thank you SO much for sharing it with us. You guys would really fit in to the houseboat community, right in your wheelhouse. ❤️❤️
Woooow! Definitely added to my to-go list!! We have a few floating house/boat communities around here in Vancouver: I know people who live year round in boats and one of my jobs is at a nearby yacht club... but nothing that epic! 😍🤗🇨🇦🥰
I really really really like this video I used to work with your homeless and I was even considering buying a house by myself at one point in my life where things lead me other places I will have to say this is one of my most enjoyable videos you guys have done keep up the good work what you’re doing and I’m going to pray that you find some place it will fit your needs in where you fit in ai The both of you have got really good hearts I’ve been really watching your journey I will back you up and whatever you do I just know the good man upstairs got a good place for you guys took me a while to find where I’m supposed to be you know I live in Hawaii and I’m also a part of the American red cross and I do a lot for my community can I take a lot of pride in everything That I do and I know you guys do as well there is something special for you out there don’t give up keep in touch
Mahalos! We know the good man upstairs has a plan for us and we are right where we need to be at this very moment 🙏 Love that you are part of our community and that you have a big heart for helping others. 💛
Thank you so much life is too short not to help people I like what you guys are doing as well again keep up the good work that you’re doing if you ever make it to Hawaii look me up please I’d really like to show you around Hawaii
@@paul-bo5dm Yes! 💚 We absolutely loved HI and wish we had connected before we went in the fall of 2019. Here's our video playlist. ruclips.net/p/PLCTwz2HZPRzlCVQ7ykrWWosV5wcdWR51K
I haven't watched the video yet but I just want to say, I hope you both have a awesome day filled with grantings and miracles that will propel your lives in the highest vibration of your realities.
Since you guys are in the area, I suggest a drive out to the coast. Point Reyes area is incredibly beautiful and well worth the drive. You will drive through a number of small communities that may be up your alley. The town of Inverness is incredible.
The houseboats in Sausalito are sooo wicked cool. (I used to live in Fairfax and Tiburon), so right in the area. Unfortunately too much bucks!! NO, you would NOT think it was fun wallowing through the mud. Make sure whatever you buy is very solid. Wow, so many issues. I have been gone since 1999. I had no idea that so many issues have popped up. So sad. I had thought they were cheaper because there was no land only floating houses.
I moved to San Francisco in the Summer of Love and wound up staying 38 years. Thanks for reminding me about Juanita's. Ate there many times, she was a former Madam who fed the hippie/rock culture. I am retired now and live in Ecuador. You would love it here. So beautiful, housing is cheap, lots of areas with yoga culture. But I still miss the Bay Area. Crazy expensive.
How cool my dad lives on a house boat and before COVID when he would travel he would rent it. If you are thinking about buying you could still travel and make some money. I hope while you are here you do some hiking Marin has some amazing hikes with water falls 🥰 enjoy
@@Mrandmrsadventure it's something I have wanted to do for a long time but busy building my tiny house on wheels so boat life will have to wait a while. If you do we can live vicariously through your vids:-) Happy Easter.
I really enjoyed your video and learning a bit about the houseboat community in San Francisco. It’s incredible to see the strength of a community when people know each other and are looking out for one another. This is something that we are all capable of, but sadly this is sorely lacking in so many communities because people do not connect or talk to one another. We are stronger and healthier when we have that engagement and protective shelter of a community. Looking forward to seeing where you guys will land! Do you have a preference for where you would like to live (location wise) ?
It would be hard to park a van next to one of those :-) Buying a cabin or a house to renovate and earn some money on, and buying another house to renovate and earn some money on until you get your dream house to live in, is one thing you can do. The best thing is if you can do this without having to take up a mortgage, times being as they are, and probably will be for a long time. Renovating a house also makes good content. An old friend of mine who has passed away now, once said a thing I remember. He said, the views living by the ocean can be great. But you have the moisture all the time, and it can be very windy. So it is better to live a certain distance away from the shore line but having the ocean view if you can afford it. I also had friends who built a house right by the sea, where they could jump right into the water and have a morning swim if they wanted to. But they sold it after a few years and bought a house away from the waterfront. In a warmer climate, these things might not be of the same concern. I don't know.. But from what you are showing us, it looks like you will be living very close to your neighbors in that place. And it will probably be quite noisy most of the time. I get the feeling that living like that might not be quite the thing you are looking for, but it is very smart of you to look under every rock in your quest to find the right place. Put down on a piece of paper all the things you would like to have in a property and add that it should have good neighbors and be affordable for you now. That is important. And then suddenly the right place will turn up for you. It might take a while, but you will find it. That is how the universe works, it seems. Good luck with everything. It is very exiting to follow you around on your journey to find your very own place where you can settle down.
Thanks so much for publishing this video. It was so informative and educational. I have relatives that live in Marin County and have visited that area before, however, as a tourist you look at things with rose colored glasses.
This is really cool I just gave a van life also I’m working at 95 now living in an apartment but something inside of me really wants to live a houseboat life
That was very different but so interesting and special. I totally picture you in such environment. The price of the house was a surprise which is a shame as it could bring people who comes not for the life style but for the full and not being permanent. Hopefully the community will do their own regulation )) Again thank you!!!
Hoping today’s video brings a smile to your ❤️ We love you, Mr and Mrs A
I know it will. On the schedule for later. But the short answer to your thumbnail question is a resounding no. Catch yas later!
What a fascinating video. One of your best I think. It looks like an amazing community. Thank you for posting this.

I was there in the 60s with mom, and dad on vacation from the Midwest. Great history. Thanks!
What a different lifestyle. It’s such a beautiful place to live. And the community seems to be pretty well organized. Loved it!😘🤗🌼🇻🇪

I moved to San Francisco in the Summer of Love and wound up staying 38 years. Thanks for reminding me about Juanita's. Ate there many times, she was a former Madam who fed the hippie/rock culture. I am retired now and live in Ecuador. You would love it here. So beautiful, housing is cheap, lots of areas with yoga culture. But I still miss the Bay Area. Crazy expensive.
Wow! What a time that much have been 💛 And Ecuador sounds incredible... maybe we will see you there one day ✌️✨
I love Ecuador. En qué parte se ubique ud?
@@colleenkaralee2280 You will have your chance! ✨
@@colleenkaralee2280 We have heard great things about Ecuador. Hope you can get there sooner than later
Beautiful video. Great work!
How cool my dad lives on a house boat and before COVID when he would travel he would rent it. If you are thinking about buying you could still travel and make some money. I hope while you are here you do some hiking Marin has some amazing hikes with water falls 🥰 enjoy
I had to watch this twice...praying you find a houseboat here...you'd have some awesome vids to share:-) Goodluck!
Thanks makes us really over the top that you would watch this one twice 😍
@@Mrandmrsadventure it's something I have wanted to do for a long time but busy building my tiny house on wheels so boat life will have to wait a while. If you do we can live vicariously through your vids:-) Happy Easter.
@@melsparkles Happy Easter!
I really enjoyed your video and learning a bit about the houseboat community in San Francisco. It’s incredible to see the strength of a community when people know each other and are looking out for one another. This is something that we are all capable of, but sadly this is sorely lacking in so many communities because people do not connect or talk to one another. We are stronger and healthier when we have that engagement and protective shelter of a community. Looking forward to seeing where you guys will land! Do you have a preference for where you would like to live (location wise) ?
What an AWESOME video like all of them... Welcome to Nor-Cal...😁🤙
OK, This video MADE MY HEART SMILE 😃🌹🌹🌹
Enjoy the interviews and stories
It would be hard to park a van next to one of those :-)
Buying a cabin or a house to renovate and earn some money on, and buying another house to renovate and earn some money on until you get your dream house to live in, is one thing you can do. The best thing is if you can do this without having to take up a mortgage, times being as they are, and probably will be for a long time. Renovating a house also makes good content.
An old friend of mine who has passed away now, once said a thing I remember. He said, the views living by the ocean can be great. But you have the moisture all the time, and it can be very windy. So it is better to live a certain distance away from the shore line but having the ocean view if you can afford it. I also had friends who built a house right by the sea, where they could jump right into the water and have a morning swim if they wanted to. But they sold it after a few years and bought a house away from the waterfront. In a warmer climate, these things might not be of the same concern. I don't know.. But from what you are showing us, it looks like you will be living very close to your neighbors in that place. And it will probably be quite noisy most of the time.
I get the feeling that living like that might not be quite the thing you are looking for, but it is very smart of you to look under every rock in your quest to find the right place. Put down on a piece of paper all the things you would like to have in a property and add that it should have good neighbors and be affordable for you now. That is important. And then suddenly the right place will turn up for you. It might take a while, but you will find it. That is how the universe works, it seems. Good luck with everything. It is very exiting to follow you around on your journey to find your very own place where you can settle down.
Thanks so much for publishing this video. It was so informative and educational. I have relatives that live in Marin County and have visited that area before, however, as a tourist you look at things with rose colored glasses.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love this video x thank you x
Great and safe morning 😗
😘🙏❤️

This was so cool to watch! Great content!
Glad you enjoyed it! 🤗
This is really cool I just gave a van life also I’m working at 95 now living in an apartment but something inside of me really wants to live a houseboat life
You should give it a go! 😁 Stay tuned for another episode that has us sleeping on one.
Great video.
Thanks for another great video love your content it just let's me see other options
Awesome, Glad you like them!
This video was wonderful. The story of the houseboat community was interesting. I wonder if any of the inhabitants are families with children?
Thank you for the kind words 😌 and yes, we did see children! But it did feel a little crammed for giving them enough space to play around the “yard”
That was pretty cool!
You should visit Lake Cumberland KY in the summer. I haven’t been there lately but I think they have lots of temporary houseboats.
Good rec. I was there as a teenager. Some lakes only allow recreational houseboats and not full-times.
very interesting place!!
So interesting!!
You guys should check out some tree houses in oregon! I think you would live it.
Do you have any in particular you recommend?
Great Morning ☀️
Great morning love 😘
That was very different but so interesting and special. I totally picture you in such environment. The price of the house was a surprise which is a shame as it could bring people who comes not for the life style but for the full and not being permanent. Hopefully the community will do their own regulation )) Again thank you!!!
