Out for a sail on the Barba Roja with friends to enjoy the unseasonably warm, spring-like weather. Not much wind left by the time we made it out, but we enjoyed a great leisurely run up to the bridge anyway. Found some friends out on their new boat Heart of Gold and had a little friendly racing action. I took a long turn on the helm, and we turned around at sunset and made a leisurely ride back down to Solomons. I'm glad I was able to take advantage of the fantastic weather and get out on the boat with some friends for the first time in quite a while.
