What Survives!

The Twisted Trees are lone survivors out here. Do they ever rot, someday maybe. They are fascinating the way they get twisted up from the wind.

The Seclusion

We found some!!! Seclusion that is. So far my experience in the Canyonlands has been different than I expected. The vastness, the beauty, that's all been inline with what I thought but I was expecting to be off more in the wilderness, away from the people. Even though the park is pretty unknown in the [...]

The Finish Line

So after starting out reaching in 30 knot winds, sailing 30 hours in adverse current through the gulf stream, putting up a Spinnaker for a short jaunt and then reaching a becalmed area 20 miles from the finish line we finally ghosted in and crossed the finish line Wednesday afternoon. I finally felt like sitting up. It was warm and sunny out and the water was flat. I climbed into the cockpit and breathed in the air as Doug collapsed from exhaustion. There we sat bobbing around for about an hour when I noticed a slight breeze building so I grabbed the tiller aimed us to shore and got to do my little part in getting us to the end. Doug woke up to see us almost there. It was an exciting moment to reach the finish line.
