If you had been here, you could have sailed all week. I just got
back from my second late afternoon sail this week. Today it started with
stop and go, that is go for 100 yards and the wind would drop off, wait a
couple of minutes and go for another 100 yards. Ironically, the sail stayed
full waiting for the next puff.
It took a while to sail out of Big Water, but then the breeze picked
up and continued. I found the Shuck's Red Rhodes. Forlornly parked by it's
dock. I could hear 'I want to sail' in the wind there, so I headed out
across the lake.

Great breezes on Lake Hartwell....

Sweet!
I still haven't actually sailed yet. Hopefully Sunday's the big day.

Bob, Rummy,
We, on the other hand, are riding at anchor in Little Bay off the
Chesapeake
just north of the Rappahannock River working at our regular jobs. We sailed
up here after work yesterday - a lovely 3 hour sail in 10 building to 20 kt
wind.
Today's our first real test of the Verizon National / Broadband system at
anchor and thus far, things are going well. The power use seems to it's not
too bad - and it's a gorgeous day outside w/ a light breeze - not as hot as
it has been lately and quite comfortable below deck.
Our friends who sailed over from England are anchored by us - they're going
to swing by at lunchtime in their dinghy and we're heading over to the
beach
for a nice walk before getting back to the grindstone. Jeez, life's tough
sometimes....

Rummy: You know how to hurt a guy. Our home is in total disarray
owing to the consequences of last years hurricanes. While we did not
suffer much damage directly from the hurricanes, when the roofing
company pulled the old shingles off of the roof about a month ago and
before they could get the protective "peel and stick" over the roof,
we got hit with a tremendous thunder storm which cause leaks all down
one side of our home. We were already in the process of updating our
kitchen. Bottom line: too many
workers around the house to go sailing! {:(

Michael,
I got up yesterday, looked at my schedule and there was nothing on it.
Highly unusual these days, so I spent the entire day on the lake. My
GPS logged 32 miles, 3 of which were motoring. Winds were out of
the southwest between 10 and 15 and I sailed until sunset. A very
good day indeed.
Would somebody please take the camera away from Ed?
Rummy
