It has actually taken us the entire month of February in historical downtown Ft. Myers to recover from our 11 month escapade called “The Great Loop”. Our recovery has been a two-part process... letting go and embracing:
Letting go of our concerns for watching the weather, setting up course headings, making day-break departures, needing safe harbors, dealing with mechanical breakdowns and hot-footing it for provisions.
Embracing fun-filled, relaxing activities built around social gatherings... festivals, parades, dockside celebrations, group strolls to ice cream shops, coffee shops and restaurants, farmers’ markets, classic car shows, a dingy excursion, a Beatles Tribute Concert at the local art center, a guided tour of The Edison/Ford Winter Estate and exploring Pine Island by car.

I love your posting and the pictures are fantastic! Looks like you had a lot of fun, oh wait you did. Nice to make memories so when we are truly old we can sit in a rocker on our porches and tell wild stories, with pictures to prove never a moment was wasted.
Hi,
I am Bill from Minnesota. My wife and kids and I talked with the two you on Sunday. It was interesting hearing a little about your adventures. They are fascinating to this Midwest born hick. Thanks for sharing your story. I will keep up with you.
