Sitting around and dreaming

About sailing, I have never even been on a sailboat but it is stuck in my head and has been for months now.  All it took was one youtube video and I got hooked to the idea of being out on the ocean all by my lonesome and having a bit of solitary time with nothing other than nature to keep me company.

I need that isolation from people, just to energize myself.  I was raised in Maine, where I could always just sneak off in the forests and reflect about life.  Now I live in Florida, Spring Hill to be more specific and there is no getting away from people here - not like it was in Maine.  One thing though, is that I live just a few miles from Florida bay and remain hopeful that perhaps, just perhaps I can find some solitude on the water.

Another thing that I found interesting was the level of exploration I could do without worrying too much about inadvertently landing on private property.  I love exploration, but not where I could end up at the end of a barrel with somebody demanding me to get off their property :D.

So..  here I am, day dreaming of owning a small boat.  Just a sailing dinghy to start with, probably no smaller than 12', something to learn how to sail on and to also learn if boating would be something I could become interested in pursuing.
