Think about how fortunate we are! As houseboaters, we live the life style that people all over the county – and world for that matter – can only dream about. We live in picturesque houseboat communities, on wonderful waterways in the middle of one of the best cities and most scenic regions in the USA.
Yes, we are very privileged. And with privilege comes responsibility: the responsibility to keep our water backyard clean and the responsibility to help restore and maintain a healthy marine ecosystem here where we live. As a community we do it by such things as FHA promotion of Best Management Practices (BMPs) for floating homes and FHA financial support for Puget Soundkeeper Alliance. We do this personally by being good stewards of the lake. Get the full story and download a copy here.
The Sweep
And don't forget this year's Lake Union & Portage Bay Sweep on Saturday, May 15th.
FHA is again a prime sponsor, and I urge all houseboaters to join in the clean up of the water we live on.
