The Perfect 4th in Charleston...
 
What a picture-perfect 4th of July it was in Charleston Harbo(u)r, today.
Mid 80's; beautiful blue, cloudless sky; a very nice sailing breeze, as
predicted by the weather guys yesterday; moderate wind chop on the water.

I got all tired out from winching, so decided as we went back to the dock
to pick up the drunks for the fireworks tonight to come home, instead. My
back is killing me from wrenching it moving a church organ around at work,
so it needed to get away from that winch handle.

What a beautiful boat a Jenneau 40 is and a pleasure to sail from her big
cockpit. She came in 3rd in the race last week ahead of some of the
"professionals"...(c; Our little group isn't used to "placing" in a race.
Hell, we're lucky to cross the finish line before the race committee has
gone home and already posted the results on the webpage!....heehee
