Captain Keri, and first mates Coaly, and Zephy piloted the boat down the lake under sail while crewman DrewBee tended the trimming of the sails.
When we turned the corner into the Coleman Arm we came into a wind shadow. We thought this would be a good time to douse the sails and motor up to the end of the arm where we anchored near a slalom course.
The water was like glass all night. We woke to the wake of a bass boat rocking the boat at 6:00 am. Apparently there was a fishing tournament today and boats were out early looking for fish. Shore was only a short dhingy ride away for the puppies to go potty.
Keri spent a lazy morning rowing around in the dinghy taking photos before we headed back to the marina. We sailed briefly on the way home but the wind was mostly in our face so we just motored back to the dock where we packed up the boat and drove it 2 blocks back to Jerry's house where it is parked.
(keris edit: LAZY Whatever I rowed my arms off.... walking up stairs is anything but easy... It wasn't lazy last weekend when you had to row!!) ;)
