Blog Entry 0001  Day 150  

Subject:  Blog Cast Off!

This is my first attempt at blogging – so please be patient – hopefully while learning how we are living aboard our blue water Gulfstar 48 foot sailboat – s/v YOLO, you will notice that my writing improves, (but no guarantees).  I am using this blog to share our decision to live outside the box by living on a sailboat. As well as our experiences as to how we got there and how it has changed our lives,  the daily life of a cruiser; dealing with opportunities and facing challenges; keeping in touch with family and friends and meeting new friends;
I hope you will be inspired by sea adventures, share our excitement and visualize the beauty of the sea; as well as feel how strong sea can be and the fear it invokes.  
Hopefully you:  will be entertained, might also learn a few things that might be useful to you; laugh with us; wish you were here and not be grateful that you are not here or think that we are crazy for going so far out side of the box; or just look forward to the next posting.  But ultimately, understand why we, sailing seniors, are so motivated to sail on.

So sit back, and hold on!  I am casting off blog 0001.
