Description

Today’s podcast is an interview I did recently with a delightful couple – Herb and Nancy Payson of Port

Townsend, WA.

Herb and Nancy read a book titled “A New Way of Life” by Samson in the 70’s. The book suggests addressing

the problems of urban life by sailing around the world on a sailboat. Herb proposed to Nancy that they buy a

boat and start cruising (with their kids) – and the rest is history, as they say.

Herb has written several books and his 35 year old title “Blown Away” has been republished by Lin Pardey and

was re-released in December 2014.
