I've read several of Jimmy's books. I'm a virtual parrot head anyway. (I've never been to a concert yet, probably never will and will hope to run into him someday in Miami or some beach someplace haha)
Matter of fact, I have music on my Kindle Dx and it's all Jimmy Buffet haha
I haven't read his book about the pig yet. haha. I read A Salty Piece of Land last year while sitting on the beach in Jamaica.
We decided last year that our retirement was not going to be "Sitting down and stopping". I will be around 55 when we are ready to "depart" and I'm in pretty good shape for "an old guy" now. I just don't want to wait until I can't hoist sails, bail out the bilge or hang with the kids in the Islands.... haha.
I still have a lot to learn - being a novice sailor, but here in Colorado we deal with gale force winds, the fast moving squall and severe thunderstorm all the time. More so, I am betting than most cruisers see their whole lives out on the sea (and judging from talking to some of them, I am not far off on my estimation).
