sailing

Did you experience the major wind shift and gusts yesterday evening? It caused some problems for this sailboat.

If you gaze longingly while watching the sail boat races on Lake Superior every Wednesday in the summer, don't just stand on land and watch, take classes and get sailing!  Until now you probably didn't know where to turn for sailing lessons now you're covered with a class from Duluth Community Education.

It was pretty cool watching the Tall Ships come into the harbor on Tuesday.   If you were lucky enough to get a good glimpse of the lake, that is.  Fortunately, drones took to the sky and this particular video gives a great perspective on the majestic ships.

Quite a while ago, I parked my 1981 AMF Sunbird Sailboat at the cabin.  I couldn't store it indoors, so I did my best to tarp it.  I've been meaning to find time to get it in the water over the years, but this year I've made it a priority.  I was a little worried to see what kind of shape it would be in after unveiling the tarp.
