At the start of 2008, I made two resolutions. One to become more environmentally conscious and the second to join a sailing club. I didn’t get far with the Environmental thing. I blogged a few ideas and changes I made in my life for a few weeks. I got a little bored blogging about it but I continue to make best efforts.
I just accomplished the second by joining the Raritan Yacht Club. RYC is one of the oldest sailing clubs in America, located in Perth Amboy on lovely Raritan Bay. It’s known as one of the most active racing clubs so I hope to be spending many a weekend weighing down the rail of anyone in need of crew.
This is step 1 to getting another boat. My wife and I are mulling over what to get. I want a Moth, she wants a cruising boat.
Anyway, at least I will have something to blog about. As you may have noticed the post frequency has dropped off. I have been spending most of my time on running the blog for my son’s rugby team. I have only so many blogging hours in me in a week
Congrats on the progress…get out on the water and sail when you can.
Re environmental responsibility, you can help every day. Waste less. Pick up after yourself and others. Do the lightbulb switch (that one made my wife very happy…every time she sees the new bulbs she feels we’re progressing.)
Good for you helping with the rugby team. I help some friends with a sailing blog…just learned what an opti is!
