Connie, I really do need to win the lotto... I read your sailing adventures and get all excited about the possibilities. Everything you mentioned is just what I want to do. And, as a matter of fact, I'm not bashful or easily embarassed. I understand when people dont want to get their bathing suits wet... it's so uncomfortable to let a bathing suit dry when you're wearing it. You know how sand sticks to everything... Being a backpacker, I've seen and done simular. When at mineral hot springs some 5 miles in, no one wears clothes, It's expected. Wouldn't want to get the hot springs contaminated with clothing now would we? We used to just think of it as natural. How cool those times were. No worries and lots of fun!!! I'll bet you could tell story after story about your past adventures in other lands. Maybe someday we'll find ourselves sipping a tall cool one and chatting about those adventures. I'd like that.
