In March of 2004 Jeff and I tied the knot.
On the Schooner America, in Key West. Fitting, no?
On July 1, 2004 we moved aboard our 35' Wauquiez Pretorien, No News. We sold and gave away all of our possessions which was incredibly liberating, I cried when one lady bought all of my shoes, but I truly felt lighter afterwards.
