Jana and I rise before dawn and head down to the waterfront at Boyd’s to watch the sunrise. Jana took an incredible time lapse video and I experiment with some slow shutterspeed images of the gorgeous sunrise.
We grab our boards and head out for a paddle on Stock Island Channel. It’s a pristine morning and the water is really clear and shimmering. We explore some of the nearer mangroves and check out some houseboats. We headed across the channel to the bridge, but the tides pretty strong so we head back against the tide and get a great workout on the way back to Boyd’s.
Wess and Ida come across to the RV before lunch and have decided to do a similar JetSki tour at 1pm. They’re going out with Barefoot Billy’s from the Marriott Beachside Resort across the way from their hotel.
When they return Jana and I head over on our bikes to chill with them for a little in a remote corner of the pool area at their hotel. We stay well distanced and enjoy almost feeling normal doing something like this, just for a little. On the way there, we spot a family of manatees in the water. ?
There’s a 40th birthday party happening over behind us and those folks are having a blast. Feels like we all need to blow off a bit of steam as cabin fever becomes more epidemic than COVID.
Ida had found a wonderful restaurant that had outdoor seating, Firefly, and made a booking. We all head downtown and are seated in an outdoor area with only one other table. We enjoy a fabulous dinner and go for a wander down to Duval and one more trip to Flamingo Crossing 🙂
We’re all pretty tired as we head back to our respective abodes. It has been another beautiful day in the Keys.

Happy Birthday to My Greatest Adventure Partner!
Happy 20th Birthday, Jack!
Grant’s built homes, companies, and communities, but the most beautiful thing he’s built is the life we’ve gotten to share for more than 21 years now. It’s a life grounded in love, kindness, and deep gratitude for our family and all the experiences we get to have together, thanks to him.
I love Grant’s integrity, purpose, passion, and his heart-centered generosity of spirit — whether he’s working on visionary wellness communities or transforming an abandoned shack into our next family home.
Right now, I’m so grateful for Grant’s support during the hardest health challenge of my life, whether it be helping me walk down the stairs, dressing me, driving me to endless appointments, or reminding me of my own strength when things get scary. He holds space for all of who I am, supporting the choices I make for my healing, and supporting my dreams with unwavering belief in me, in sickness and in health.
At the same time, Grant is the best dad to Jack and Ellie. Watching him with them, celebrating their gifts, supporting their journeys, and being their safe harbor is a blessing and a joy. He parents with empathy, kindness, an open mind and endless patience, and show them, every day, what it means to be a man who leads with his heart.
At work, Grant is a force of nature. He inspires positive change, connection, and makes the world better, one project at a time. But beyond his impressive accomplishments, it’s his humility, his servant leadership, and his genuine care for people that truly set him apart. Grant doesn’t just work to improve businesses, he works to improve lives.
He’s taught me that true success is measured not by what we achieve but by how much we care. And Grant cares so much; about his family, his friends, his community, and this planet we all share.
Grantly, thank you for being wild and free, for embracing life’s chaos with open arms, and for loving me and our family unconditionally.
Happy Birthday!
