Paradise Cancelled

Alright, maybe it isn't what everyone woud think is paradise, but it does come close when the weather is nice and the boat is comfortable. The last time I was there I was cold. That was in October of 2003.

We promised that we would return this year, we missed it last year. But today I cancelled. I have lost my appetite for chilly days and damp nights on a sailboat in late October. And mornings like this with my coffee are now remembered more like this. This was me on the last morning we were there. In 2003.

The promise of this sort of warmth is only a memory. Like this picture that we snapped sailing in, maybe back in 1999.
