Went to pick it up in Toledo yesterday. Hopefully I’ll be sailing by the end of next week. A long road, but it feels great to finally be here.

Finished recording and got most of the way through mixing. Just a day or two here and there and I’ll be done with my first album, which feels great and I’m quite happy with the result. Of course, next comes the hard part which is the marketing and pavement pounding, but I’m content to bask for a bit yet.
One more week of classes, 110 days of sea time and passing my license exam is all that’s left. 2 years has gone fast but I’m definitely ready to start sailing and making money.
