Celebrating 44 years since I proposed to Paula, we sailed the Patuxent River Basin, simply enjoying our boat and spending quality time with each other!  We followed up with a great dinner at Boomerang's with great conversation!

On a night when we did not race well, and everything went wrong, we flew a black flag in honor of Brian Steuart.  Last place finish matched the somber mood. Tough evening for Sailing Team Barba Roja.

While camping with my son and granddaughters at Belle Isle State Park, I kayaked way up Mulberry Creek.  I thought that eventually I would get to point where I ran out of water to paddle, but I never did.  It was great seeing the ospreys, red-winged black birds, and a pair eagles. Perfect weather and conditions.

At Belle Isle State Park, we kayaked and canoed. Dave was in the canoe with Erin, Shannon did great on her very first attempt at kayaking, and I paddled along in my kayak as well. We continued up the creek until Shannon started to get tired when we turned around.
