I'm so sorry that you lost your Dad so young. But happy that he realized his dream before going over the last horizon.

Your story reminds me to take care of my own health as well as that of my loved ones. At times it seems that all of my effort goes to taking care of others. Today I have to go in to have a sore spot in under my cheekbone looked at. I don't want to have it flaring up when I'm over in Montana keeping the campfire going while my brother hunts.

Colon cancer is a killer, a stealthy one. My favorite author, Terry C. Johnston died of it a couple of years ago. He was five years younger than I am now. My best friend in Alaska died of liver cancer, just a few months younger than I was at the time.

Live life every day. It's so important. I keep telling my wife, be happy no matter what. If you are unhappy because of this or that might happen or has happened, it does not make it better to be unhappy about it. You might as well be happy in spite of it.

My sister is the navigator in our family, and I have a cousin who sailed the Pacific and has many seafaring adventures to tell. I'm a landlubber myself. I like to see the shoreline.
