Gone Fishing

I’m getting ready to hit the water soon for the annual sailing venture in the North Channel. This will be my 10th year (yikes!). The German is already there getting the boat ready for my arrival (because I’m so spoiled). I’m more than ready for a break, and this is truly a break. No phones, no TV, no computers. It’s all low tech. Sailing, kayaking, reading, playing Scrabble, drinking Guinness, enjoying nature, and hanging out with the German and the familiar faces we've met over the years.

I'll be blogging again sometime in mid-August.

Ahoy, mates!
