Sailor Quote Sunday

"And a sailor you must be if you're going to try ocean voyaging. You'll need a modicum of sailing aptitude, some grasp of mechanical concepts, and a willingness to pitch in and work. Most veteran world sailors fall into the classification of restless adventurers who are always looking at distant horizons." Hal Roth After 50,000 Miles

Hi Sue, I was excited to see there was a group for CTTs. My son is a CTT in Mayport, FL. He has been in now for 4 years and reinlisted this past spring. My husband and I are just so proud of him. Look forward to hearing from others.

My mom died Dece 13 2007, and dad Dece 30 2005. So we got slammed in a short period of time. Daughters seem to miss their moms more, and that is certainly the case here.My mom put on a brave front when dad died, but I think she was doing a whole lot worse than she let on.
I miss her terribly right now, and have the tissues on the sofa for there are so many movies that trigger the tears without warning. Give mom lots of hugs Sue, whether she seems to need it or not.
My mom seemed to deal with her parents loss so much better than I am. Wish I knew the trick.

Hope your holiday was a good one! Mine was just short of awesome. I just got back from San Diego last night from visiting my returning sailor. Tonight I get to see the other one for a birthday celebration. Luck has sure rained on me this holiday season!!!!! Sorry you are not going to join us though in NYC. Hopefully another get-together will come up after the holidays some time!

Three of Derek's friends from here drove over there Tuesday night. I sent some cakes, pie, cookies and goodies with them. They ate at Golden Corrall today. Not sure what they are doing tonight though.
