Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the
things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off
the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the
trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Mark Twain

I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely seas and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sails shaking,
And a gray mist on the sea's face and a gray dawn breaking.

I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.

I must go down to the sees again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way, where the wind's like a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow rover,
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.

John Masefield 1878-1967

Flying Low and Slow.
This is my new hobby.
Discovering the Puget from the sailors perspective.
