The Heart of Salome: An Interview with Lou & Judy - Ep. 22
On this episode of the Osborne Adventure Podcast, we invite you to sit around the table with us for an intimate, long-form conversation with Lou and Judy, the incredible couple behind the foundation of our expedition, Salome. From the start, Lou and Judy believed in us and, through unimaginable kindness, made the purchase and refit of Salome possible. Most importantly, they have become our dearest friends in the process. Join us as Lou shares the moment he first stepped aboard Salome and, despite knowing the years it would take to get her back on the water, felt he was home. Judy recounts her journey, from a childhood shaped by the sea's embrace to her connection with Lou, sparked by an unforgettable experience on Salome.
Over shared stories and laughter, they open up about why they so deeply believe in our mission. This episode offers a warm, unfiltered look at two people who have become a cornerstone of Osborne Adventure. Join us for stories of belief, friendship, and the unbreakable bonds forged through a shared dream.
Val and I share an unexpected experience after being invited to an elementary school assembly where 300 students gathered for a presentation about Down syndrome led by a fourth grader named Hailey. What followed were thoughtful questions, funny moments, and a firsthand look at how deeply kids connected with our family, our mission, and the idea of adventure without limits.
