We were able to swing it by getting a super great deal on our boat and hanging out here for a while longer. We could have left more than a year ago if we hadn't done so. <br /><br />My husband is 21 years older than me and I feel that clock ticking every day... you never know... maybe you'll find out that you don't NEED a bigger boat, and all of those people will be right! Thanks for hanging out with us and see you out there!<br /><br />tTammy Swarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06779759048984133676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4490833788146823466.post-58594462708977197622013-03-20T19:38:16.466-05:002013-03-20T19:38:16.466-05:00I love your post.

BUT, S/V Changes is paid for - and if we got a bigger boat, would postpone our cruising. My husband is 18 years older so time is a factor in being able to go out again. So I will live on the boat we have and always pine for a bigger one.<br /><br />Lorraine DolsenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4490833788146823466.post-65545430686449127942013-03-15T20:11:40.495-05:002013-03-15T20:11:40.495-05:00HEY all - Thank you so much for your links!
