After relaying my stories about how much fun the trip with my work Friends was, Joyce put out the offer to Her group as well, and on Wednesday we set sail with Austin, Paul(again) and Kirk onboard and raring to go. It’s hard to believe but we had another nice west wind today blowing at 15 knots again perfect conditions for a beam reach right out of the Harbour. Kirk was quick to take the helm this time around when the offer went out and he seemed pretty much at home and did a great job of steering on our fun filled afternoon. The wind peaked at 20 but since we were on a beam reach I eased the main and Rose Lee took off, nice. Wow what a nice way to spend the afternoon catching up with your colleagues and leaving work out of the occasion for a change. I don’t think I heard one bit of shop talk on either trip and that’s saying something. The business golf games I have been involved in usually sees at least one person on the phone for most of the game while the others are constantly involved in talking shop, not really relaxing just a different backdrop for workL. One of the nice things about this trip was Kirk coming along. Kirk is a curious person by nature and was really astonished when he heard about our plans a few years earlier. Every now and then Kirk would swing by Joyce’s desk and say so you’re really going to do this? Sell your house? Buy a big boat and sail away? Joyce would respond, yes Kirk that’s the plan, one day at a time and we will learn as we go and if it’s not for us we will come up with a new planJ This trip finally made it real for Kirk who is genuinely excited for us and whatever adventure’s lie ahead. The day was a real success and enjoyable for everyone with lots of good eats and refreshments for all, now that’s what’s I call a great day at work and one day closer to retirement Woo! Hoo!
