Spring Session M

My first local sesh since mid-November!   Plagued by minor surgery, a dinged back, and the Winter That Froze Over Hell, it had been awhile for your humble editor.  But the dry spell is done!   11109820_852869718085163_6943805181296381937_n4.2 at Sebonac Inlet:  Scott, the Wolf, Frank, Jason, Peconic Jeff, the Natalies and moi in the bright sun and nippy water (48 degrees)   I got an hour in sailing moderately powered, which was plenty for me as the back recovers.   It got holey towards the end (as Easter approached?) and Scott pronounced "it's OVER" just as Jan and Bruce arrived (Jan in her spiffy new truck straight from the dealer.)  Next time.   I can't wait until next time!

(That's the view from Scott's helmet cam as he takes some air.  Oh yeah!)

    Would you believe that when I saw this pic my heart started to flutter!! I can’t even remember the last time I was down and have been laid up also with torn discs in the back and so it is now rehab. No idea when I will be on the water again but hoping not too long – meanwhile I am missing all the good wind. Once summer is upon us then the wind goes away. Enjoy it and make the most of every session you get on the water. I have learned now never to complain about gusty conditions etc etc just grab what you can get.
