Leave the mountains and sail off to paradise - not quite

A great read. Two people choose to forsake the mountains of Montana and sail around the Caribbean. Great humor and insight into the two different mindsets of sailing. Tom the authors husband has the wild fearless viking outlook while Rae Ellen takes a more sober (when are we going to die?) outlook on the adventure. Her humor is great -the characters they meet along the way are colorful - even the plastic lizard mascot the author adopts adds humor. Though they never make it any further than the San Juan Islands area, the adventures and training for the paradise trip will amaze you. From hair raising docking experiences to holiday meals onboard - the book will entertain you from first to last page.

not a bad book

I find it is an honor to be related to this author, believe it or not i am a nephew. For those of you who i am sure did not make it to her book signing here in Priest River Id. the other day, missed out on a good presentation, it was 2 hours, but even interested me. I am not interested in sailing, and i think its a book that is worth the time to read.
