The truth is, in practice our lives are still much too rushed and when I get to the boat, I'm in a hurry to do a project or relieved to be sailing and get caught up in the adventure and am not taking time to document what are literally the best times of my life. Here we are, we all own beautiful cruising sailboats. We all went sailing today. We just finished a great meal. Our health is good.
Life is good.
It was agreed, immediately. 1999 was not a good year for sailing weather. The summer was hotter than normal, with less wind than normal. Despite a grueling work load, I still escaped to the boat regularly. Mostly alone, because Terry's sister was in town, Terry was pregnant and not interested in sailing last year.
