Steve will be staying in Granby full time for the near future to be with family. Here's an update on what that means for videos going forward for now. Next week, look out for a video on a visit Steve made to an Oyster farm back in Maine. And if Steve is able to get away again, he's hoping to head back north to pick up Victoria and bring her back to Granby to do some repairs and hopefully get the sailing rig put together at long last.

Acorn to Arabella started as a wooden boat building project in Granby, Massachusetts. Steve began the journey as an amateur wooden boat builder crafting a 38' wooden sailboat in his backyard: designer William Atkin's Ingrid with a Stormy Petrel's gaff rig. These videos follow the journey from tree felling, to lumber milling, to lofting, to the lead keel pour and now sailing the boat-sharing details of the woodworking, carpentry, metal smithing, tool building, and tool maintenance that traditional wooden boats command. This ultimate DIY project continues beyond the boat shop, as Steve and crew travel and learn to cruise aboard the handmade wooden boat that they've built. Just kidding about all that, this channel is about a Siberian Laika named Akiva.

That sigh at about the minute mark, I felt that. Don't feel any pressure to create content. Be with your family and we'll be here when you're ready.

Your focus is in exactly the right place. As much as I enjoy your program what you are doing is far more important than entertaining us. 😢Take care of your selves and your mom, we will still be with you whenever you return to the boating videos. Best wishes, love your vlogs.👍

@stevedunford7632 3 месяца назад

I'm sure I speak for others in saying if you feel the need to shut down then do so, we will be here when you get back.

Hay baling sure brings back happy and itchy summer memories from that part of the world. Bay Roadie. Life gets in the way but the animals still gotta eat. Be well.

@stevebarger7665 3 месяца назад

This is something I was blessed to help my parents's through. They both died with dignity at home 18 years apart. Having the oppurtunity to be with them through their journey was a gift many don't get and some wont take. After it is over they still live on inside of us, Good luck and God bless!

Forget about the content..... You and the entire A2A crew have quite honestly been spoiling us over the last 7+ years with so much of your heart and soul. Focus on your mom and your family, and nothing else. We will all be here whenever you return, with plenty of virtual hugs and appreciation for your journey. In the meantime, take comfort in the fact that the entire A2A family around the world is lifting your mom and your family up in prayer. "I am the waves that bear, I am the winds that guide. I am the evening stars, I am the morning sky. I am born of the sea, and there I shall die." God bless, from a fan up in 🇨🇦

You helped me through a most difficult time by giving me brief distraction and a vision of seeing things through to their completion while I dealt with relocating to the East Coast to aid my father's failing health and his eventual death. RU-vid content doesn't matter, your family and your emotional health is what is important.

@MrMichaelcurran 3 месяца назад

Steve I have watched you and your for 7 years or so. And, your mother has been apart of your offerings all the while. Now sadness is upon your family, I feel the need to pray for all. GOD HELP YOUR FAMILY THROUGH THESE TIMES.❤

There’s so much you can share in the upcoming weeks, that will stay with you forever! I’ve been there too, some years ago. Take it as a gift, give everything you can and there will be freedom, dignity and love in this part of life, that we all will go through one day - hopefully surrounded by our loved ones.

@shadetreewelding 3 месяца назад

Prayer for everyone. Don't worry about us or content. I lost my Mom a couple of years ago and my Dad in '04. Take all the time you need, and you will need it.

I came across your channel by mistake several years ago looking for forging videos and found your video on the pouring the 100 gallons of lead for your keel, I've been hooked for the last 6 years or so watching Arabella "grow up" and consider my self lucky to see a small part of your life. All my love and support to you are your family at this difficult time. Take as much time as you need to focus on what is really important, I'll be happy to watch videos of hay bailing until you return.

You only have one mother and to be able to be with her in her final moments is one of the most important moments of y’all’s life. Don’t miss it for anything. It is one of only a few moments, you can’t get back later. We will be here for you when you return much love.

Much love to you all, take all the time you need. We just lost our eldest sibling, Paul. He also finished up with end of life care, which strangely makes it easier, as there is time to reflect on all our entwined lives and get used to the idea we were soon to lose him.❤️❤️

@williamschmidt8944 2 дня назад

I sympathize with you and your family. I lost my mom in 2019 to cancer. Hardest thing I've ever gone through. I still think about her all the time and I can finally smile through the tears of my memories. Hold tight to family and friends, you will get through this. Please take care

Just went through this with my father. He fought ALS for 10 years. I was lucky to be able to spend a week a month with my parents for the last year, helping and just spending time together. He just passed the Friday after Memorial Day.

@davidcole217 Месяц назад

Hi Steve and family, I think about you, your Mom and family often. It always hits me more on Friday mornings, because it’s part of my week to see what you’re doing. I’m not encouraging you to hurry back quite the opposite, I’m hoping that you are getting to spend extra time with your Mom. Your journey is your own and I hope you’re getting as much joy as sorrow on the path. Blessings to you and your family. Dave

Grew up on a boat in the Cape Cod area in the 1970’s. Life has a way of taking over. I have a ritual of jumping in the ocean off of Scituate every spring. Boat life isn’t easy, all we can do is try. My best wishes to you and your family!
