Bob,
You are so right. The weather turns and suddenly that idealic day is gone. This was prompted from learning one of my seventh grade student’s dad was on this last one that went down. The ocean and even the river when it overflows is such a powerful force.

I grew up in a river town in Ohio, so I’ve always been drawn by water. As a kid, I more than occasionally dreamt of working on the tugboats that crawled up and down the Ohio River.

Then again, I think it is somehow something cultural, in that lots of people I meet love the water in some way. Some would say it’s us wanting to go back in evolutionary time, but I think it’s different than that. The sea and its weather is the last untamed wilderness, really. You can carry weapons to deal with animals, but the weather can turn and adventure deadly, even if you think you’re prepared for it.
