We walked onto Sea Tryst for the first time.
Canaan, Xanadu, and the Playboy Mansion; like Abraham, Kubla Khan, and a pubescent teen, our eyes were opened and our worldly desires fulfilled.
"This is what a sailboat should look like!"
The cabin was dry, organized, and odor free. The head (bathroom) actually functions, and it looks as if the sink works as well. This is awesome.
We were not aware that it was possible to be comfortable on a sailboat. Also, this one doesn't have ripped sails and a broken engine.
"Is that a guitar?" Mike plays guitar.
A working bathroom, some food, a dry place to sleep, and a guitar, what else could I possibly ask for?
"I'm in" I said with resolution, then I wrote a haiku:
The ocean is calling me
Land is so boring
It's better when the floor moves
Well, the boat is nice but my poetry needs some work.

I just now realized I haven't left any feedback after reading your blog on and off for the past month. Shame on me. A few things: You're both such great writers and storytellers. Not that I expected otherwise. Second, Grant is a guy you'll all have to tell me loads about back in the fall over a beer. The breakup was a little ambiguous, with exception to the broken shit on the boat. Third, I'm proud to have friends like you. Period. These stories reinforce to me even further what a good outlook you all have on the world. It's inspiring. That aside, take care of yourselves and keep up the blogging. Toph- you still got a bed at 21 Eliz in the fall if you need it. Alex- If you're ever in the SE Pennsylvania area, you can assume the house is still yours. Take me up on it. Peace guys.
toetry, i like your popher. (sometimes i mix up words when i say them and sometimes i don't bother correcting it because it sounds better). alex, i like your double entendres. good work, you two.
hugs
