About Me
- Erika (aka Ocean Girl)
- Kemah, Texas, United States
- "She starts--she moves--she seems to feel the thrill of life along her keel, And spurning with her foot the ground, With one exulting, joyous bound, She leaps into the ocean's arms!" -Longfellow. Well that poem is me in a nut shell. I have always loved the ocean, grew up around it, have sailed over 20,000 miles on it. It still amazes me how the sea soothes my soul and thrills me from the top of my head to the tips of my toes . A place I can breath, a place where I feel God smile down on me… a great big horizon to horizon smile. I love boats about as much as I love the sea. Multi or mono, traditional or modern, I love em all. I live aboard a Cape Dory 30. Her name is Ocean Girl and I plan on single handing her to Australia by 2012 (unless someone special waylays my plans).**UPDATE (11/2010) Soul Mate found!
