I too am from the Atlanta area. I served in the military for 8 years, joining the corporate world after becoming a civilian. I traveled and moved quite a bit. For the last 7 years, I have been self-employed and a single parent. My daughter is graduating this year and I am looking towards doing things that put me on the move again. I have planned a kayak trip up the east coast, from Savannah to Maine, then hiking the AT back to Georgia. I have also planned for a horseback trip from Georgia to Montana, following that trek. That being said, a friend of mine has a 35' boat that I have spent some time on in the past few months. I now, out of nowhere, have a bug to go to sea, alone, as most of my life has been spent and enjoyed. Stories like yours are inspiring. I wonder if folks will look at me strangely when I pull into port wearing a cowboy hat. Take care. GW I am glad to come across your site. I too am from the Atlanta area.
