Off the Boat

8/10/2010

Well, we are now seasoned (if novice) sailor-folk!  And there's a whole new slate of marvels and wonders that we have experienced in the summer's second international foray.  Our hosts on the sailboat, Miel and Sharon, allowed us enough hours per day in the salt water that we're sufficiently pickled--and oh, the undersea sights we saw!  (We decided together that swimming things which are larger than the smallest member of your party are universally creepy.  As well as things that wear their defense mechanisms on the outside.)

We are now brining ourselves in the cool, fresh water of the Smokies once more, floating Deep Creek on inner tubes by day and watching the sun set from the porch of Sabbath House by evening.  We have missed you all more than we will ever be able to express.  We are grateful to you all more than we will ever be able to express.  It will be ever so good to reconnect next week and swap stories about our summers' experiences.  

Much love and peace to you~

Amy and crew

    Story swapping
    I've enjoyed your logs and the whole trip we took together. (You may think that I was not with you, but I was.) I followed you on the map and shared lots of laughs and a few tears with you - from afar. That's been great but I look forward to laying eyes on each of you, hugging each of you when you can work me in and hearing each of you tell stories. I'll bring lots of yarn so you can tell as long as you want!
    Welcome back soon!

    You have been deeply missed and we hope the summer has been a good respite, but that you are ready to come back and do what you do so well.
    Love to you all.
    Connie and Harold
