I got Friday off, and my two Brother in Laws were up visiting from L.A.
The weather has been nice and warm lately, but very little wind. We launched
at 10:AM as the FREE Richmond ramp and the wind came up, we didn't have to
start the motor. the winds were 10 to 15 knots and we flew over to Angel
Island for lunch and wine. We had the Island all to ourselves, and nobody was
there to collect the fees.
After lunch we decided to sail around the Island (5 Miles) Passed sea
Lions and Pelicans, then we had a 5 mile beat back home. Sunshine dug in and
we flew home. Now that I got a fresh sailing fix, I feel MUCH better. This
area of S.F. Bay is one of the most beautiful places to sail in the world.
This really made my Christmas special.
