Sailing....

there is something magical about watching a sail boat...
I've never been on one....
but love to watch them on the water...

it was fun watching him getting his boat on to the lake...




the whole time I had this song in my head...
Sailing....

Takes me away

To where I've always heard it could be

Just a dream and the wind to carry me

And soon I will be free

Fantasy

It gets the best of me

When I'm sailing

All caught up in the reverie

Every word is a symphony

Won't you believe me

 

It's not far back to sanity

At least it's not for me

And when the wind is right you can sail away

And find serenity

The canvas can do miracles

Just you wait and see

Believe me

I agree with you and I have never been on one either.

Looks very peaceful, but I'm sure there is much work involved, in having a calm sail.

Our son in law graduated from Mass. Maritime Academy and has sailed a lot. He and his bro used to bring boats (owned by rich people) back and forth, from down south to up north, for winter mooring, etc. He has some lovely tales to tell. And some scarey ones too.

But that would be way too scary for me.

Lovely post! I miss seeing the sailboats and other boats we used to see all the time because we were living on the coast in Tidewater, Va. It's such a peaceful sight and renews the spirit, that's for sure.
