Hi Stephen I guess it has been a long journey but I have enjoyed every minute of it. I remember one of my first comments was when someone had mentioned they they were afraid of a flight they took. My reply was the flight I was afraid of was being a nineteen year old Marine flying to Vietnam. Then the time you talked about Yosemite Valley and I told you about my hiking experiences when I came home from the service. I was able to see Vietnam, Africa and South America and they paid me. The reason I’m still here is your quality and I consider you a friend. If I ever win the Lottery we will have to meet for a little sightseeing and dinner. Again joy and peace.
My goal is to just be a better functioning person in the new year. I'm going to talk to my mom about getting a therapist, buying new clothes since mine are all too small for me after I got taller, and I'm going to try stay on top of school work. I hope everyone has a good year! Remember regardless of how productive you are, you're doing great❤
Cant wait for this one. My grandmother was brought up on a narrow boat on the canals in Birmingham. They lived on one & had another that was a working boat. Her dad my great grandfather used to take goods up & down the canal. They also had a horse. Must of been a hard life. Im in orkney at the moment & seen the northern lights this evening. Maybe you could do a story on the northern lights & then a snow storm which we also had. Would be amazing. Happy new year xx
Thanks Karen. I think you just planted 🌱 a seed of an idea there. Lovely. And thank you for sharing the story of your grandmother. I can see them in my minds eye. I wish you peace. Happy new year 🙏🏻❤️
Lovely story and yes, I want more about the canals. My husband and I went to France in ‘23 and spent some time on a canal cruise. I was enchanted! That made this story so much more special…at least the part I was awake for. ;) I listen to you every night…Thank you!
I would love to hear more about Grace and Ray! I listened to this one last night for the second time and I fell asleep very quickly. SO grateful to you Stephen. Give Timmy a hug for me!
I come from a railroading family on my father's side. My father and his brothers used to listen to old recordings of train sounds to relax and reminisce. I love your train stories! They bring back happy childhood memories. Thank you!
Happy to be the second person to thank you for your story. I would like to hear more about the couple in the canal. Good night to everyone, dream away 😴
Happy New Year Stephen. I haven’t read the new story yet I won’t be going to bed for a few hours but I just wanted to say how much I like it. I always like all your work so I don’t fell I’m jumping the gun. I just wanted to wish you and your family a great year. I have done real well with my ankle because I have put in a ton of hard work. How I was able to push so hard for so long SLEEP and I give you most of the credit for that I had a physical therapist and a sleep therapist you. Thanks my friend.🎉
Hi Gary! As always I am happy to hear from you. I hope you are well my friend and I’m happy that your ankle is doing well. It’s always a joy to read your messages. You have been listening a long time and I am grateful for it. Happy new year Gary and take care of yourself 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Lovely and relaxing as always Stephen. Would be lovely to make a canal boat series, especially a seasonal based theme hence following Grace and Ray through the ever changing seasons of the year. Thank you.
Hi Stephen may 2025 see you and family ride its wave with grace enjoy sunshine on your faces and may the road elevate with you! It is the first time I write although I have been listening to you for at least two years. A deep thank you for your work.
Thank you for the story. I have horrible insomnia and you have really helped me. I restart your stories over and over because I cant seem to stay asleep even an hour at a time. I love the rain but the organ music is a bit high pitched. If it was just the rain I think I would sleep. I am sure others don't even notice it because they are asleep right away. I am not complaining ...just my personal feedback. I am trying to find one that doesn't have music. Happy New Year to you and yours.
What a lovely New Year’s message, Stephen. I’m very excited to hear a canal boat story. I had a short ride on one in Wales a few years back and would love to return there and travel around on one. We have a canal system in Ontario and our section in Ottawa turns into the longest skating rink in the world in the winter. It was mostly Irish workers who built that canal in the 19th century. I am really looking forward to this sleep story. Many thanks, Go rhaib maith agat!❤❤
Hi Stephen my children and I listen faithfully every night and they are begging for a story that has a Minecraft village theme. Can you please do that one for them? Thank you for all your awesome stories
I've sadly had to cancel my You Tube subscription but I have instead, subscribed to your patreon so I can still listen to your lovely voice to help me relax. 🙌
