Me Too!

"By the way, I read Phil's account of his swim in Lake Ontario and it
gave me giant goosebumps. I had something similar happen when the
mast broke on my boat in the middle of the night while I was on the
foredeck. I came up too far from the boat to swim for it, or for my
dad to see me. I crawled ashore 5 hours later. It was very
interesting that some of Phil's experiences were similar to mine, i.e.
swim slow and steady, and focusing on one idea for a long time.
(getting to the motel for Phil, and all I wanted was some pastries.)
