Thank you very much!

This was easy to write, because I live so close to a boat harbor that feeds into the Atlantic Ocean. My daughter and I often say we need a boat for emergencies because there is really no way off of Long Island except a couple of narrow roadways. Big enough boat for the pets and everyone (not a $70,000 trawler 😄).

As for the women taking charge...I grew up without a father (or rather with a dreadful deadbeat father, absent) so women were always the strong ones in my family. I never wait for a man to do something. I just jump in and do what has to be done.

I'm so happy you liked this, because you certainly do know writing :)
