Sailing the Gulf Islands

Vacation. I love it. Christine and I took last week off to go visit Livia and Carol on their sailboat in Canada and sail in the Gulf Islands. I hadn't been on a boat in a long time and I had never sailed before, so it was sure to be an adventure.

Sailing away

Eventually I'll put together a worthy post about the week Christine and I spent with Livia and Carol sailing in the Gulf Islands. The short story: It was a great time. The weather was perfect (barely a cloud in the sky until Saturday), and we learned a lot about sailing. I now understand what it means when Livia tells me that they added a 3rd reefing line in the main.
Pictures and stories to follow. Stay tuned...
