Gilda RadnerMy bed was pushed up hard against the wall just below the window. I loved to sleep with the windows open. Rainy nights were the best of all: I would open my windows and put my head on my pillow and close my eyes and feel the wind on my face and listen to the trees sway and creak.

I did not imagine that I was a pirate, or that I was going anywhere. I was just on my boat.

It's really the beauty of decay and death that holds a power here.

I planned to row 3,637 miles across the North Atlantic to France. I was alone. There were no chase vessels. No one planned to drop food or equipment to me along the way.

Nature is a bigger force than you.
