Dear Bruce:

There lies the diffrence between you and Skip. While you wouldnt
consider that trip "...something to write home about...."
Skip would post an epic manuscript detailing every event. Im surprised
Skip hasnt started logging and psoting his BMs and Lydia's menstrual
cycle....
oh, actually I think he did make a vailed reference to her
menstruation. Humm, ever wonder why "men" is in the word men-
sturation?

I can see your point, Bob, Skip can be verbose in his trip descriptions.
Some of us (well, me at least) enjoy hearing tales from those who are
doing what it is we wish to do. I am without a boat. I am very
inexperienced. I'm trying to raise the money for a boat and getting in
as much sailing as I can. Unfortunately the only crew places I find are
racing, which, though enjoyable, are not the type of sailing I really
want to be doing. I read this newsgroup to learn from those who have
done it, are doing it, or have other interesting facts to pass on.

While I'm waiting to afford my dream I enjoy living it through Skip and
Lydia. If his story telling bugs you, don't read it!
