Another Sailing Adventure!

Just another Monday! Each time we go out on our boat it is a new adventure. My husband and I are trying to exercise more - so we decided to drive to a bicycle trail and ride before sailing - the web site said a 4.20 mile loop - well 6.78 miles we finally got back to our car! Last weekend we had our grand kids and took them on a bicycle ride - our Church Criterium! Took some great pictures hope to post soon. Today's ride was good - just a little less than an hour! Then quick sandwich from subway then on to the boat. Just as we got to the marina, it started to rain. First rain we have had in about a month - much needed - but not wanted just as we were opening up everything! After the rain quit, we did get in a good sail. Wind was good and it was nice and cool on the lake. Our temp has been hovering at 99-103 for the past few weeks! A fierce wind kicked up with 2 to 3 foot white caps! The boat handles the water just fine - it is just a little hard to get back to our marina. We were some worried that the wind would make it quite hard to dock the boat in our slip, but once back to the marina, it was quite calm, thank goodness.

We are heading to the boat again this afternoon - bicycles still loaded from Monday - and no we haven't exercised since then - I have had a bad bout with sinus and have felt rather icky and lazy. Also spend the afternoon yesterday with mom at a financial advisor getting her investments in order! Today, we are going to ride in the neighborhood around the marina, then take the boat out.

I am also going to break down and order a laptop, I am always competing with my husband for the computer!!! My husband is becoming an eBay and Craig's list junkie! He is 67 and until about 1 year ago completely afraid of the computer. He can navigate pretty good-but still won't make a bid or check emails! We have found several items on eBay we need for the boat at a very good price! I have also discovered auction sniper -thanks to brother-in-law--snipes are a very good way to win eBay bids!!!!
