If you're lucky enough to live to 100, the years between 50 & 75 are your third quarter. That segment in life could be the waning of your physically agile years, so it's a good idea to stay active. It's also a good time to challenge your brain to keep things limber up there - by mastering something new. We decided to go sailing, and this is a chronicle of our journey.

About Us

Click here to read our very first post, which explains - in a nut shell with photos - how we got here:

Here's us. Belinda and Don. 
She: from New England, painter & printmaker, tall, perpetually distracted and wandering to the next flight of fancy.
He: from Arizona, IT Security man and Firefighter, tall, perpetually focused, making and sticking to plans, driven.
We met in California and fit together like apple pie & ice cream.

Do you notice that in each photo, Belinda is hanging on to Don?

That's because he is her treasure. The keel on her boat. Her best friend.

I really like the blog. I have taken a look at all of the information and am very excited for your third quarter. I too would like to have a positive third quarter with a focus on travel and making memories with Gary. I am looking forward to following along ...all the way to your fourth quarter!!!

Thanks so much, Sue! If you make it out for a visit, you'll have to join us on Florian for a drink. We promise not to make Gary crew for us - we'll stay in the slip, watch the sun go down and listen to the sea lions singing nearby. :)
