Your pride noted.
Tried the boating thing and it was fun, but hard to get that boat over the Big Horns when the streams all flow over rocks and are only a couple feet deep at most.
I am sure you are very happy with your master's certificate and the length of your boat. Most of us who are RVing feel the same way about our chosen hobby. We have a hurricane moving up the coast right now - think I'll head west for a few days or weeks until this thing passes. Friends on the coast with boats are just stuck there, hoping their insurance covers their losses.
