Here's the view from my galley port this evening. This large power yacht has been next to us since we got here, but the people had gone home to Texas to visit so it's been sitting vacant. It has served to act as a very nice wind block on South and Southeast winds, one that we will miss since they are leaving and the wind is turning that direction soon. It's kind of odd to look out my window while cooking after dark to see what looks like a large house interior. You can't see the actual boat in the dark, just the interior of the boat highlighted, and since the water is calm this evening and we're not rocking, it almost feels as if we're on land. Very disconcerting.
(or how to move onto a sailboat) With the advent of our 50th birthdays came the usual sorts of life evaluations that one goes through. At what have I succeeded? What contributions have I made? What do I have left that I want to do before I die? Living on the water was high on both our lists. For any who share the dream, and for our family members who might not understand, this is our story. We don't know where it will take us, but welcome along for the ride!

Oh, that IS kinda weird. It certainly looks like you're parked next to a house. I feel like a peeping-Tom...or peeping-Mike. hehe
