  • All good things got to come to an end The thrills have to fade Before they come 'round again

Took Bente out for the last sail of the season today.  Jackson Browne summed it up best:

All good things got to come to an end
The thrills have to fade
Before they come 'round again

I'll have a few more outing on other boats before we close out 2023. but none will top the feeling of sailing.
