Trip to the Seven Continents: Diane and Alan


 TOGETHER WITH SKIP AND LINDA, WE TRAVELED TO ALL SEVEN CONTINENTS. MAYBE THE MOST GLAMOROUS EVENT WAS CELEBRATING NEW YEAR'S EVE ON THE ANTARCTIC MAINLAND. AS FOR HER ADVENTUROUS SPIRIT SHE ON THAT TRIP SWAM IN 32* OCEAN WATER. BUT IN THIS PHOTO SHE AND SKIP KAYAKED ON A CALM AND WINDLESS DAY.



WE DID THIS TRIP IN JANUARY, 2013 DEPARTING SOUTHERNMOST ARGENTINA FOR ANTARCTICA.


AND WHILE IT WAS SUMMER IN ANTARCTICA, LINDA STILL HAD TO DRESS APPROPRIATELY.

WE FINISHED THE TRIP BY TRAVELING AROUND ARGENTINA GOING AS FAR NORTH AS THE IGUAZU FALLS. 


FROM 32* WEATHER IN ANTARCTICA TO 95* IN NORTHERN ARGENTINA AND AS YOU CAN SEE LINDA REMAINED UNFLAPPABLE. SHE WAS A DELIGHT TO BE WITH.

West Coast Family Connection by Rob and Naomi Taylor

It was not until Skip connected with his Aunt Ruth, 20 years ago, that we connected with Skip and Linda. What a delight to get to know them. We were fortunate to visit the Tiki house twice. They were hosts extraordinaire. We were wowed by Linda’s beautiful flower petal art laid upon the bed, just one of the many special touches that made us feel so welcome. Linda and Skip came to the West Coast several times for reunions with the Taylor/Mundy family. These are pictures from our August 2019 reunion on Hornby Island. We had a raucous, fun get together, how could it be otherwise with Skip and Linda and the Taylor/Mundys? After the gang left, we were looking forward to a couple of quiet days with just the two of them. Alas, it was to be only one day. A storm was brewing! They made a hasty retreat. Literally minutes notice to get off island by water taxi in order to not miss their flight home. Here they are waving goodbye! We have very fond memories of Linda, a remarkable woman.

Linda's Birthday 2021

Linda's birthday was 28 February. It was a sad day. Diane and Alan remembered that for Linda's birthday in 2020, they (Diane, Alan, Linda and Skip) drank champagne overlooking the Nile. Mary created a very special sculpture in Linda's memory. It is called "The Missing Piece". Skip is going to plant it in Linda's garden, overlooking Church Creek.
