It's fun to walk into a beautiful retirement community and see your names featured on a posting next to the elevator! A certain sense of "self-importance" takes hold.
Dave and I enjoy sharing memories of our two year adventure aboard Connemara. We've put together a powerpoint presentation and so far shared it with an adult education class through UWM and now at Chai Point.
The fun part, for us, is looking at the photos as we share information and remembering the fun and the adventure of it all. As a child growing up in a suburb of Chicago, if anyone had ever told me I would own a sailboat, much less sell a house and almost all our adult possessions I would have told them they were nuts!
But we did it.....and we loved it....and now it's fun to share with others. One of the questions at the presentation last week was from a woman in the audience. She asked me "Would you do it again?" My answer...."In a heartbeat!"
"Famous" for an hour.....fun!
