Sailboat Race
Friday my dad and I left home for Olympia with plans to race his sailboat. Yesterday we got up fairly early, ate a good breakfast and headed for the marina! Now, this was his first race this season, and my first race in a few years. While things weren't always going as planned (i.e. sails/lines getting hung up) we had a good time and looked at it as a learning experience for next time. The one thing that was on our side (according to Dad anyways) was that we had good winds. In MY opinion, I would rather have light winds and no heeling over, which means I have an opportunity to get my camera out instead of bracing myself so as not to feel like I'm going over board. ;-) The handful of pictures I took were in the 10-15 minutes after we were done, had the sails down and were motoring back into the marina.
