And on Monday We Celebrated

On Monday morning, after breakfast, we drove to our marina town and picked up our mail, visited with some boating friends and paid a visit to our neglected sailboat.  I am feeling quite bad that she is not the centre of my universe at present!  And I think she misses me too.

By the time we got back to the house I was ready for another shower and a bit of a celebration.  I decided that my stomach must be made of steel to have survived all the jalapeno and cheddar potato chips, Sun Chips, nuun, and chocolate milk that I had stuffed into in on Sunday.... so bring on the pizza and red wine, too.  I am not saying I wasn't still tired, cause I was, very tired, but pretty happy, too.

After showers, we put on our race shirts and medals and posed for a few pictures...




And then kicked back and enjoyed the evening...

    I've only been sailing once; I must say, I'm envious of those of you who's tummies aren't bothered by waves...
