As a follow up to my towing story. The guy stopped by as I
was tying up yesterday. He apologized for not thanking me,
said he was just so upset ( understandable) , and then
thanked me about 5 times.

My faith in mankind is restored.



Years ago, when the water levels on the Great Lakes first fell by about
2.5', we ran aground in an area we used to sail over with impunity. A
couple in a Catalina 30 pulled us off, and we waved and yelled "thanks"
as they departed, but I'm not sure they heard us. So later we took them
a case of beer.

Better late than never.

Better than the time we were sailing along and passsed a certain Union
sitting off the point...we waved happult as we passed by hoping they were
having a nice lunch parked in irons...later, when they arrived back at the
dock, they wondered why we didn't stop and help them unground
themselves...


Dave and Jan? Did you know he's dying of CA?

Yes. They were up to see Roni and Marv this summer. He looked older but
pretty good. Sadly that was probably the last time we'll see him. R&M took
him sailing, and it was a real treat for him, having sold his boat some
years ago.
