About Nothing

The first true title for my blog. A few years back I was doing what I do best, daydreaming. I thought how great it would be to get a nice sized sailboat and start out on Lake Michigan and sail all the way down to Florida. I would bring along Curt and Jman. Oh, oh, first problem better invite Emma. Now that Kevin is grown up, he should come along too. As the line from Jaws goes, "We're going to need a bigger boat." That's the beauty of daydreaming, let's say we have the perfect boat for everyone who would like to come along. This includes you, because it wouldn't be the same without you. Welcome aboard! The boat is beautiful, comfortable and fully equipped. The captain is Albin. He is a wonderful sailor and also provides information as to what ports and points of interest are coming up. We all have duties aboard the ship/boat though. We are all trained for emergencies and participate in drills. There is wi-fi on-board so you can check your email, blogs etc. There is always someone interesting to talk to. If you want to read or nap or whatever, you are completely in control.

Lake Michigan has a beautiful shore line. White sand beaches all along. We anchor now and then to swim and cavort in our bikinis (no skinny dipping on this blog, Karen or Lynda). We notice almost immediately that the wonderful healthy meals plus the exercise we get with training and Zumba, our bodies are toning and slimming.

Every day we feel better about ourselves and closer to our shipmates. We find common interests. Play cards, experiment with recipes, play golf and even some scrapbooking.

Time to go, hope you enjoyed our little trip. Let's pick it up again sometime. I wonder what Mackinaw Island would bring. We may never make it but our final destination is Key Largo.
