I've been trying to take it in
In this 'here today, gone tomorrow' world we're living in
-Kenny Chesney
No one lets it go. Ya turn Six-oh and it is constantly in your face. My brothers decided to do a camp-out. Eatin'. Drinkin'. Boatin'. A get together. Made camp at Duck Neck in Chestertown. Cruised the Chester River in search of Brits. Didn't find any Brits, but did make refueling stops along the way (for marine petrol too). Been through a lot growing up together. Life changes, good and bad. Family ties and celebrations. Divorces. Marriages. Over the past weekend, over excellent food and drink, we reminisced, discussed, obsessed, argued, advised, annoyed, and overall enjoyed hangin' out. Four brothers, lookin' back while lookin' forward. Each slippin' into the 2nd half of his Journey. Separate, but together. The first half had flown by. Don't blink.

| Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall You've seen it all, you've seen it all Watched the men who rode you switch from sails to steam And in your belly you hold the treasures few have ever seen Most of them dream, most of them dream... Schooner Sultana in Chestertown Harbor. |
