This is a book about my sailing voyage from San Francisco, California to Long Island, New York via the Panama Canal, "The Voyage". The journey was chronicled in the my Sailing Intermezzo blog as it progressed from its beginning in October 2015 to its end in August 2019. The blog was written as a travelogue and I wrote little about my personal life or how I was feeling along the way. This book fills in those gaps and tells a more complete story, a more personal perspective. The Voyage was originally conceived as a fun, challenging adventure, a break from life on land. It doesn't turn out that way, is almost abandoned, but becomes my lifeline, something to grab and hold onto as life stormed inside me. This is a story about a journey that was very significant, a revelation of deeply personal experiences, one of personal growth and maturation.
