  • Hoisting the sail for the first time in 526 days. Picture curtesy of my wonderful wife Karen.
  • Just a perfect February day for sailing. No sure why I can't get the pictures to be horizontal.

It’s been 526 days since I last sailed and today was the perfect day to go out on Mattox Creek.  58 degrees, light wind, blue skies.   It is also the first time that I’ve ever sailed in a winter month.  I stayed out for about 3 hours.  Nothing left to do today but smile, smile, smile.
