Gail Hunter
Gail rushed in where angels feared to tread. The result? A smorgasbord of adventure and learning whether on land, sea or in the air. A strong curiosity has been her compass.
A competitive athlete, she served in many executive capacities for sailing and golf associations. Gail graduated from Wellesley College with a BA degree in Art History and Modern Architecture.
A designer and builder of solar houses, she served as secretary of the Connecticut Renewable Energy Association in the 1970s.
Married to a lawyer for forty years, then widowed, she is mother to three, grandmother to 13, and great grandmother to one.
In the 1990s, she moved to Florida and became a group travel agent and escort. The Venice Gondolier and the Brandon News carried Gail's travel articles. She also wrote newsletters for GM Travel (The Pied Piper) in Venice, FL and AAA (Active Vacations) in Sarasota.
In 1997, she married a fellow boater, a widower. Together, they chronicled several coastal cruises on the Internet; one for the Suncoast Media Group; others were their own photo-logs of Intracoastal cruises on their trawler and land-based trips in their motor home.
Now curtailed by the recurring effects of Post-Polio syndrome, Gail is happy to be home again in Burlington, Vermont, where she relishes writing about things she can no longer do. She is also busy, and thoroughly enjoying, digitalizing 50 years of 35mm slides.
