Went out for a daysail on Friday afternoon with the wind from the South at 10 knots.  A front was forecast to blow through late that night with a North wind to follow.  Called up the missus and let her know it was perfect for an overnighter in Swan Creek so a daysail turned into a mini-cruise.  Had a gentle ride up with some thunder claps around 4pm so motored a bit until the wind came back.  The storm cell missed us.  Anchored in Swan Creek and had a great swim, foraged for food on the boat and half a full moon that night.

The morning brought 15 knots from the North as predicted and I had a quick ride home Saturday am under reefed main.
