Sailing

Yesterday, Van, Vernon, Joyce, my mom and I went sailing on the Chesapeake Bay. I had bought a Google Offer for a 2 hour sailing "lesson" out of Deale, MD from the Sailing Academy. It was a gorgeous day with light winds, enough for sailing, but not enough to make it rough. It was about 62 degrees so again just about perfect for not being too hot or too cold. We had an excellent and fun captain, Angie, and I learned a few things. We all got a chance to steer the boat and to help with the lines. Van did any of the "hard" sailing stuff with Angie. Afterwards we went for an early dinner on the other side of the marina where everyone except me had seafood - crabs either in the shell or as a cake. I have a video if I can figure out how to upload it to the blog.
