One of the things that is best in the cruising life is meeting people from all over this great country and other countries that we have so much in common with. All it takes to meet new people is a walk down the dock or a tender ride through an anchorage and before you know it you have made friends with someone you have a ton in common with, they know someone you know, then the stories and experiences and friendship begin. Jeff and Karen on aCappella sing a song about the cruising life (you can see a video of it on an earlier blog) and in a part of the song they sing "it's not about the places, not about the sunsets, it's the people that you meet". All the places, sunsets, beaches, exploring, and cruising are all wonderful, but the best is "the people that you meet" and do all those wonderful things with, especially with my best friend Stephanie.
Yesterday Life's2Short (Todd) called me and said a cruising friend was coming in (Where?s Linda) and they had lost all power. Todd got into his tender and played tug boat while we caught lines and guided them into their slip. I don't want to say they had a rough ride from Key West, but they had sea grass on the fly bridge. In the cruising community we all help each other. Before you know it we had new friends. Todd and Brenda left today headed to the "Key West playpen" to meet up with Gypsies in the Palace and they are going to use Pete and Linda's mooring ball while they are there. That's how it all works in the cruising community.
Other good news is that Cassie, Godiva, and Salty got to go to the beach with us Thursday and have a dog gone good time at a dog gone good beach. They also meet new cruising dog friends. They have a loooong list of dog friends (and little boys) they have met.
