I sent this to the spamtrap, which, of course, spat it out :{)) - and, I
discover that I haven't her current address in my book to send it directly... From: "Skip Gundlach" To: "Peggie Hall" Subject: For Peggie Date: Wednesday, August 27, 2003 8:59 AM Hi, Peggie, I just ordered my copy - do I recall correctly that you've moved off the lake? L8R Skip (and Lydia, newlyweds, still sailboatless) -- "And then again, when you sit at the helm of your little ship on a clear night, and gaze at the countless stars overhead, and realize that you are quite alone on a great, wide sea, it is apt to occur to you that in the general scheme of things you are merely an insignificant speck on the surface of the ocean; and are not nearly so important or as self-sufficient as you thought you were. Which is an exceedingly wholesome thought, and one that may effect a permanent change in your deportment that will be greatly appreciated by your friends."- James S. Pitkin ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peggie Hall" Newsgroups: rec.boats.cruising Sent: Wednesday, August 20, 2003 9:17 PM Subject: For Peggie Jim Carter wrote: Hi Peggie: Where can I buy your book, in Ontario, Canada? It's been out such a short time that it's not in any boat stores yet...but you can order it directly from the publisher (see the link in my sig below) or, if you'd like a signed copy, from http://shop.sailboatowners.com/detai...=400&group=327 Postage to Canada isn't that bad...only about double the US rate and books don't have to have a customs declaration.

I just ordered my copy - do I recall correctly that you've moved off the lake? Yep...I moved to Little Rock in Oct of '01 to be a good idea to be a bit closer than 500 miles to my (now) 88 yr old dad. No, I didn't move in with him--the only person who'd have hated that more than me is him! I bought a house exactly 4 miles from him. I'm also boatless for the duration. The only places I'd have wanted to put Solitaire are more than 2 hours away...I wouldn't be able to use to her enough to keep all the work I put into her from deteriorating. So, to borrow a line from Tennessee Williams, I'm "dependent on the kindness of strangers" to spend any time on the water. ![]() Email address is btw...
