Title: Shiver me timbers, mates!
Post by: bob lamb on November 18, 2018, 03:27:22 PM
It seems the storms of life have overwhelmed me.  Heart attack and two different cancers have hit me this year So I'm abandoning ship and clearing the deck.  My little pocket yacht is up for sale on Craigslist.

Thanks to y'all for many happy years on this site!

Bob,

I hope your vessels and your sailing have provided you with plenty of wonderful memories. We all have to answer the call someday, and I am fortunate to have had so many years. I believe that when my time comes that I will be able to look back and smile.

Bless you, and may the rest of your journey be breezing along before a fair wind.

Thanks for the great words.  I've had 77 years of good health and 25 of those on various sailing craft. I have a mind with a million memories.  Now my turn has come to experience what many people have gone through for years. I have no worries, just wonders.
