It all started a few years ago

My husband said to me one day, a few years back, "I would love to learn to sail" and I said "Go for it!"
He was just primed for this response and soon he signed up.  That was it...............he was in Love....head over heels.   Now I have to say that a person could sail alone but it is much more fun when you have a crew.   You know what is coming next...don't you?

No quicker than the blink of an eye, I had signed myself up for the Basic Keelboat lessons.  I am not afraid of water, and I am not afraid of learning new things, but I am an artist.   I am a visual learner......so to get in a boat and be expected to follow directions is difficult, a real learning curve...............However, the sun is shining, the wind is in my hair and I am loving this.  I want to pass basic keelboat.
