These are all the places I've lived. The first was my home for seventeen years, but after that I bounced around not spending more than a year in most places. When I moved out of the Emerson dorms I began living with my brother. We moved into 217 Harvard in January and stayed eight months before we bought 23 Green Street. It's beyond all imagination how awesome it's been living with my brother. We've made a great team for the past five years, five months and twenty seven days though we probably will never have the opportunity to live together again. I'm sad to see it come to an end.
Add 80 Ferry Street to the list.

New adventures
Years ago my father taught me to sail on the bays of Eastern Long Island. Shinnecock Bay, Peconic Bay, Great South Bay and others were thoroughly explored, poking into the little creeks and drifting over the sandbars, going places others couldn't get to because they needed deeper water. Once in a while we would see other boaters get stuck in the shallows or become stranded when their engine stopped working. We never experienced this because we could always sail home or, if the wind quit, we could row home. When we'd see these hapless boaters invariably they would ask us to call for assistance. Along would come help in the form of a little yellow boat: the yellow boats of Sea Tow, which I became familiar with at a very early age. Many years later I found myself, licensed as a professional captain, working for the people with the little yellow boats. It was hard to believe that I was doing the job that I had dreamed about so many years earlier.
Now I find myself taking things even further. Not only will I be working on those little yellow boats but I will own some of them, as the owner of Sea Tow South Shore. A dream has come full circle.
