Life as a sailor Officer Merrill

[CraigOral Somerford]

Dear Mr.Merrill

Things are looking up the one on the lefts mine and the one on the I'm babysitting until June for this new friend of mine and his girlfriend are sailing to the Bahamas and won't be back until June this is his boat and dingy

im babysitting the one on the right mine is on the left with two kickers on I'm trying real hard to do everything right, for my first experience in sailing was Dreadful. I almost died and had to be rescued by the Coast Guard and brought to the Mooring I've been at thus far.

My new batteries are hooked up. I've got diesel in the tank, but I'm afraid to do it alone.

Thank you for taking the time to read this

Officer Merrill

Sincerely

" Two Horses "

If you stand nearby and listen, you will hear a 
cow bell. 
Looking around for the source of the sound, you will see that it comes 
from the smaller horse in the field. 
Attached to the horse's halter is a small cow bell. 
This small cow bell lets the blind friend know where the other horse 

is, so he can follow. 

As you stand and watch these two friends, you'll see that the horse 
with the bell is always checking on the blind horse, 
and that the blind horse will listen for the bell and then slowly walk 
to where the other horse is. 

Trusting that he will not be Le astray. 

This alone is amazing in a bear market giving is were the heart lies 

When the horse with the small cow bell return to the shelter of the 

barn each evening, it stops occasionally and looks back , 

making sure that the blind 

friend isn't too far behind to Hear the Bell. 

Like the owner of these two horse. " GOD " Does not throw us away 

just because we are funky or because we have problems or face 

challenges. 

He watches over us and even brings others, our volunteers for example, 
into our lives to help us when we are in need. 
With Like good friends , we know our volunteers are always there. 
Please remember: be kinder then necessary. 

Everyone you meet is fighting some kind of Battle. 
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly and more 
importantly, be in the service of others like a...

 " Volunteer "
