I'm listening to an interview on NPR with Tom Brokaw as he gets ready to retire from NBC Evening News. I've never really watched him, he wasn't my favorite. I mean, after Cronkite, you know, you just can't really measure up to that level.
But something in one of his answers made me perk an ear. When asked what he is going to do with his time, and he gave the normal things like write more, etc....but...he also wants to improve his skills as a sailor.
Cronkite wanted to spend more time sailing when he retired back in '81.
I have just learned how to sail this past spring, and I want to develop my skills even more. I want to have the chance to skipper a boat on one of the larger lakes, perhaps one of the Great Lakes.
I doubt, however, I'd make the news by doing so.
Peace.
