How did I end up a sailor?

Little did I know when an old high school sweetheart visited in January 2003 I would embark on an adventure that would push my learning curve to unfathomable depths. He was a great dancer in his youth and hasn't lost his touch. He has waltzed me into his world of sailing and "old" sailboats.

I thought my move to Frankfort, Ohio from the Lewiston, Youngstown area of western New York to a farm with cattle and an hours drive to the nearest Barnes and Noble was enough of a challenge for a 61 year old.
