Beautiful weather. Fleet Week in San Francisco. Started Friday, was going
yesterday, but kitchen sink plumbing job got in the way. Was about 90
degrees at my house and 80 on the Embarcadero in SF. Lots of planes
besides the blue angels. Lots and lots of boats. Lots of idiots in boats.
Big honking cruisers rushing through a large mass of anchored and motoring
boats. CG and police boars. Were warning some of the idiots. I ended up
near Alcatraz, so was out of the breeze and on the East side not as many
boats. Great show by all the planes. Then went over the Angel Island and
tossed out a fishing line and did not get a bite, while I ate a very late
lunch, early dinner of Sour Dough bread and Brie and fruit. And a coke and
water unlike True North and his fixation on booze.

Sounds like you had a great time, even if the 'catching' wasn't all
that good. We spent the weekend at Solomon's Island, MD, but the
weather was not conducive to boating. Did manage to get in an 'all you
can eat' oyster breakfast buffet. That was a great experience, if you
like oysters on the half shell.
