High anxiety - but still on course

We're still on course with our plan to sailaway in 2004. We've been using our Catalina 30 tall rig as a learning boat and will upgrade to a 40 something bluewater sail boat. This stock market isn't the only thing that's gone south. Our graphic design business, which has enjoyed a healthy flow for 14 years, has suddenly gotten veeery quiet. More time for recaulking stanchions but fewer funds to throw around at West Marine. Our intentions are high and we feel that all the recession talk is over done. We're still optimistic.
