<p>How exciting. How awesome. How humbling. Thanks for sharing your experience. I feel certain we all grow three extra hearts to contain all this pride. Its overwhelming. And you made sure he had his camera with good batteries right??? Will be tracking him. He picked a truly good trip. Fair winds & following seas LFWBdad’s son!! </p>
<p>The boy has picked me up three times so far. Not out in public yet but feel sure he’s saving up for it. He asked if I lost weight. Sweet thing! They sure are active creatures when they come home. I expected him to sleep & maybe play a video game. Up & out for the batting cages after eating about 10 tacos. Will find out next week when & where he’ll go to sea. He’s so pumped about it. Talks non-stop about all he’s learned. Goes way over my head! LOL You should see me trying to learn how to work a sextant. What a hoot! I’m blind in one eye now from the sun. Apparently, you’re not supposed to do what I did… :)</p>
