Sick Day: Tactician, Art keeping a weather eye on conditions.
While the lack of any strong winds didn't keep us from enjoying the day, our crew pushed on in search of that elusive wind that seemed to be just out of reach.

Sick Day: Bryan and Amber at the Helm
A perfect Wednesday morning on Lake Tahoe. A light breeze, out of the south was just right for introducing my daughter Amber to her first sail aboard "De Nada" our US Yacht 27. Bryan, my first mate and boyfriend to my younger daughter Katie is also new, this year to larger boat sailing.

SPLASH!
A couple of us were out braving the waves and the wind outside the White Lake Channel in Lake Michigan. I was at the bow, tending the jib and brought the camera with me. A wave smashed into the side, covering the boat in a sheet of water! I snapped this pic of my friend, Zach, at the helm. Excellent day of sailing.
