Default Weather reports...Phtttttttttttttttttttt!

The weather man was predicting Hot & Humid with T-storms accompanied with
high winds. A report like this would keep whiny weather wimps at home, but
we went for it.

Had a very nice sail ,in 18kt wind, over to one of our fav. anchorage's.
Lisa was sitting on the bow, feet over the side catching waves, screaming
like a little girl when one crashed over on her. Anchored, went swimming,
grilled steaks on the new propane grill. ( I like the taste of charcoal
cooking better, but the propane is Soooo much more convenient) . Watched a
new 380 Hunter anchor with husband yelling and screaming at wife. Wind
stayed up all night (rained for an hour) which made sleeping a breeze.

Shared breakfast with 20 ducks. Went for a swim. Sailed back in 5kts wind,
Slow, very slow pace (but relaxing) till a T-storm blew through, nice cool
wind, hard rain, thunder, then back to 5 kts. got to try out my new rain
jacket. turned out to be one of our nicer sail trips, I only wish we could
have stayed longer (Lisa had to be back for skool today).
