There is such a paucity of dinghy cruising literature available to the enthusiast. One is compelled to return to the meagre offerings available through blogs, ebooks or real books, for inspiration.
This is often a frustrating past-time due to the content or the author's lack of engagement with the reader. Rarely does the reader find themselves transported in mind and body to drift along a peaceful river smelling blossom to the chorus of finches in the brush, but yesterday I resumed my third read of Jack de Crow and am living the good life I between all the drudgery and effort of being a single dad. Though yesterday my 'baby' daughter took to the roads behind the wheel of my car for the first time which was ah, exciting. Perhaps in time I will be able to relax enough to read Jack de Crow and be transported off while being transported to?
