You're daughters will get along without you too, because they know not only is this adventure something you wanted to do, but you're only going to be gone another month or so. It's the slow sailing, heat, and lack of good food that's getting to you, so once you get on land again to rest up you'll feel a whole lot better for the last leg. You can quit any time you want, but I think you'll always regret what could have been if you do.JiffyLubenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5853521447761375706.post-68523338474548061142010-05-27T12:50:56.229+10:002010-05-27T12:50:56.229+10:00Dave W, you have a family and greats friends who a...Dave W, you have a family and greats friends who are very supportive of whatever life you do.
