“Every now and then we could look through the trees and see the lake. Lake Okeechobee is the second largest freshwater lake in the continental United States (after Lake Michigan). It has been likened to a saucer full of water, which is a good description because it is so shallow with depths from 11 to 17 feet, depending on the season.”

“A Young Man’s Dream: An Old Man’s Reality” is a day-to-day journal about the 5000-mile boat trip known as “The Loop” or “The Great Circle.” A young man’s dream of doing this trip came true after reading a book about it and working on the sailboat.
There were some hair-raising experiences and a lot of fun times spent as they grew closer as a couple. There is a lot of history and beauty on the water to experience. The author would encourage everyone to follow their dreams, whatever they might be.
The US Review of Books commended this work and highlighted, “Readers will be transported aboard Whoosher and will feel what it means to follow through on the adventurous longings of life. Philbert’s journal is pleasantly captivating, forthright, and open-minded. Her delight is infectious and will offer armchair escapism or inspiration depending on a reader’s spirit and desire for a voyage around The Great Loop.”
