Without a doubt the Transpac was a peak experience of my life, and one that never would have happened without Don. How can anyone attach a value to that, other than to say it was a gift beyond measure. I can remember the exact moment when he mentioned the idea to me. Deb and I were having dinner out with Don and Ginny. He said he was planning to do the race, and Ginny had mentioned to him that I had some experience sailing. He was curious if I might be interested. It was like I had just won the lottery! I mean, are you kidding me, race across the Pacific to Hawaii?!!! And then, to find out he would be the kind of guy I would end up loving like a brother. Whew . . . I was, I am, sooooo lucky to have had him in my life. We all are.
Don had the ability to pull me out of the mud of day to day existence and make me think about new challenges and adventures and how to have more fun in life. He not only talked about living large, he went out and did it! Who doesn’t want to be ar

Wanted to share the message I shared on Facebook after Don passed.
"When it's time to die, let us not discover that we have never lived."
- Henry David Thoreau
No question, Don Grind lived, and lived in epic fashion. Blessed beyond measure to have him in so, so many of my childhood memories, to have dined at his table, to have heard his adventures, felt his love, and to have been a recipient of that particular smile, those crinkles around his eyes, that oozed pride I always hoped to earn.
A Renaissance man, who raised Renaissance men. And he could give one hell of a toast. Here's mine, of many, to him. The world is altered in the best of ways by his walk. His memories will warm the chill of his loss. I will always miss him. Cheers, and my love to you, Mr. Grind. ♥️
