Day 79
Our friend Will Blake emailed us today with a great, and quite quotable quote, “The plan is always there, you just have to remove the dates from the equation.”
Bill Hooper, the Captain who sailed with us from Maine to Annapolis, asked us to crew for him from Key West to Palm Beach. He’s bringing a new 42’ Swan sailboat back from the Key West Races (which he’s participating in). Bob and I have really been looking forward to it. Unfortunately, the Florida weather didn’t give us the window to sail to Key West by the 26th. So… last night we decided to drive to Key West and take the opportunity to tour the Kennedy Space Center for two days enroute. Great decision!!
After yesterday’s experience in wind and waves, I have to say, traveling by car is ohhh so much easier, more comfortable, more forgiving, and faster! Guess that’s why so many folks drive rather than sail! I’ve developed a real appreciation for the cruising community. Those who venture out on the seas are always ready to lend a helping hand.... never knowing when they may need one.
