It was not looking good for sailing when I arrived at the club but a very light. breeze had filled in by start time. The first race was a drifter but a nice southeasterly filled in for the rest of the afternoon. We got in seven races for the ILCA 7s and six for the ILCA 6s. Looking forward to racing next week!

A SSA New Years tradition... racing up the Severn River is a great way to celebrate the new year. This year was unseasonably warm and started off with great breeze. Unfortunately the breeze deteriorated and I was unable to finish the race and had to be towed back to the club. That is ok though. It was still a great first day on the water. We had a great social after sailing and had a front row seat for the delayed Annapolis NYE fireworks. A great start to a new year!

We had a fantastic time aboard our friend's yacht, Escape Plan, for the most festive night in Annapolis. We were nice and cozy with snacks and cocktails in hand inside the headed bridge of their trawler. Definitely the way to do the parade! Until next year...

We took advantage of some gorgeous weekend weather and played with our dinghy in Annapolis before packing her up for the winter. Friday we launched at SSA and took a Spa Creek cruise, stopping for lunch downtown. Saturday we cruised her from our community pier on Back Creek back to SSA to walk over to Tugfest. After a fun party we cruised home. Sunday we returned to Spa Creek, stopped at Mangia's for a slice and then back to SSA to wash and fold up our dinghy for the winter. What a gorgeous weekend!

We love a late October trip to Oxford because the town is gorgeous with the fall colors and well decorated for Halloween. We even had a ghost encounter on our dark spooky walk to dinner at Pope's Tavern. The motor-sail north was blustery but our motor home Sunday was a piece of cake. And we celebrated our 2022 Century with some champagne and a rockfish dinner! Here's to 101 and counting!

It is a chilly, cloudy late October afternoon. A perfect day for checking out the foliage on the Patuxent River and fishing! We caught one beautiful 24 inch rockfish. Almost there!

It was a fun regatta weekend at Severn Sailing Association. Saturday was a painfully light and lumpy day but I lucked out finding the only wind on the race course and won the first race. Saturday evening we had a fabulous crab feast and Sunday the wind was much better. We sailed a total of five races and I placed second overall in the ILCA 6 fleet. Almost there!
