Let Me Take You Home Tonight
26 August 2014

Rode the current coming out the river on the wall at Dalhousie Yacht Club for the night. Tonight's shot is a magnificent sunset in Lake Ontario, looking towards home over some freighters anchored just offshore. Red sky at night, sailor's delight! We headed for home early in the morning under full sail for most of the trip. We're back!!!!
