One Year Review

02 November 2014 | Great Bridge, VA
Captain
Well, it has been one year that we have been retired and living on the boat. A couple of reflections from the captain:
• I love this woman! Not because she loves sailing and traveling like me, but because she still loves me after one year of being together 24/7. She is truly a remarkable woman, and I am so humbled and thankful that she is my wife.
• The thing we love the most is the people we meet. Great folks, one and all, so open and welcoming. All from different walks of life, so interesting, yet very comfortable with what they’re doing.
• We are so blessed to be able to live this lifestyle that many people (including us) just dreamed about. It is all it is cracked up to be and then some.
• We are just getting started, and we have many more miles to go. Looking forward to it. Exumas, here we come!
