As I was getting home from work I was thinking "Wouldn't it be nice to go for a sail this evening!" and lo and behold, I got a text from Steve abou† 10 minutes later inviting me to the boat. I beat him there and got everything ready, and we set off shortly before sunset. Plenty of wind on the river, with apparent gusts into the low 20s. We ran with a partially-furled headsail, and took a nice run to the bridge and back. Found our friends on Neptune's Wager and did some jockeying to get pictures of them with the bridge in the background. A fantastic impromptu trip and a perfect way to enjoy a warm evening.
