Some choose their direction in life based on what gives one pleasure...

At a very early age became fascinated by spending time on the water...first by fishing with my father,later building,restoring and racing sailboats as a hobby from the age of 12 till my mid 30's...then became highly addicted to windsurfing and spent ten years on wild ride searching for good wind...it would be eleven years before stepping on a boat again for pleasure...

I'm a total water rat...worked on the water till my recent retirement and still play on the water....can be occasionally talked into a climb or hike...and rarely in the winter be talked into a ski trip....but usually I'd rather be sailing or windsurfing.

My darling wife and I still live on the old farm, where we raised our children. We had thought about getting a smaller and newer place to live, but it just wouldn't feel like home to us. So here is where we'll stay, and where they'll scatter our ashes.
