Our Hull Anniversaries

By Heidi Geiger

It started back in 2014 when we ventured to the island to see if this was going to be the next project in our retired years.  Scoping it out for a day back in July 2014, we blazed through thick brush and fallen trees. Jon had many reservations because it was not far enough off the grid. He heard planes flying overhead and boats sailing up the channel.  

All theses concerns vanished and we invested in Hull island. His vision is to build a cabin.  For me, the annual trips are mostly in July around our anniversary.  I have gone 5 times and have helped with many family trips at various times. The most recent years have been around our anniversary, and we have enjoyed the peace and quiet of our active life together soaking up the beauty that surrounds us.

For our 35th my sweetie built a dining table so we could have a place to gather after all our rigorous daily projects. This past summer we spent one week with our two daughters working on the cabin and the second week boating around visiting Echo Bay and neighboring water passages.  I enjoy the July visits which happen to be our anniversary month.
