Photos - Day 6 Willie T's

The sun rose over Great Harbor at Jost Van Dyke.  It was our final full day of sailing.  I am not sure where it is written so definitively, but when I was young, someone once said that all good things must come to an end.  I didn't like that.  And since then, I have been striving to ensure that good things continue, just go on and on so that the happiness can build, spread and help our world.  On the other hand, you do not want to be the last one left at the party.  Sometimes, it is better to leave at the peak and in your memory, carry the beauty forward. 

We gathered on the beach at Jost for our picture.  We sailed across to Sopers Hole or Norman island.  We snorkeled at the caves.  We flew the American flag.  We gathered at the appointed hour for the grand dinghy race.  We danced.  We jumped.  We were a little bit wild.  We lived life.
