I was absolutely amazed at the number of boats moored
in Marina del Rey.. more than 10,000.
But very few boats actubut very few boats actually venture beyond the breakwater.
On several occasions I would see a sailboat tacking inside
the harbour.. not aring to go out into the Pacific Ocean.

It's the same way all over the warmer climes...yet when you go to a marina
in the north, at least around here, in the summer the docks will be half
empty and the mooring fields will be filled with rowing dingies...those warm
climates stultify the brain, slow the bloodflow to the brain, and retard
ambition.

That would be the mental state commonly known as "island time."

You should tidy it up a bit!


I spray painted the old tires lying about green and red for

Christmas.
Looks real classy.

that be? BTW, gotta get her up to the garage here before we have a major
winter event...she doesn't do well going through big drifts...

I think 1968 is where it changed on most models.
