Short hop to check in on the boat

It was such a beautiful weekend!! The weather was just teasing us with those shirt-sleeve temps! (Because it's dreary, overcast, windy and chilly today!)

We flew down to the boat just for a look. We've not been sailing lately- just too cold!! We prefer the warm wind-in-your-hair to five-layers-of-clothes-and-you're-still-freezing!!


Nothing much to report from the boat - still just like we left her, floating lonely in her slip. Oh - except we turned the boat around in the slip (it used to be "backed-in") so that the lovely Marina Otter would not come visit with his/her fish carcasses and putrid poop in our cockpit!! Seemed to work as there was absolutely no evidence of their visits.

The flight home was just perfect - into the setting sun. Just page thru these few photos. Love, love,love to watch the sunset. It's amazingly fast once it touches the horizon. The time difference between the first and last photos is about 100 seconds! Peaceful....

"Just remember that you're standing on a planet that evolving,
Revolving at 900 miles an hour.
It's orbiting at 19 miles a second,
So it's reckoned,
A sun that is the source of all our power."

HAHAHA!

I know it's fast - I love to watch it especially at the beach...sunrises are the same way ...just in reverse...

Love,
