The doing life together group from The Vine church has been taking annual getaways for oh, at least 10 years. In 2025 we tried cruising together and loved it.
Almost immediately after that cruise we booked another a year later, to start on January 11th. Nine days with four port days in the Virgin Islands. We all met at Dan & Diane’s place on the 10th since it’s only 2 hours from Port Canaveral.
Why Silver Waves? Well, Eric has been playing with an app called Suno, an AI-powered tool that can write, arrange, and play a song based on a couple prompts describing what you’re looking for.
The evening before we shoved off, Eric gave Suno our first names, a couple of our hobbies and life circumstances, and it produced a rather clever sea shanty with the title “Silver Waves.”
So, that’s now the name of our band of mostly silver haired explorers.
