All Aboard Sailing

Grey day sail around Shaw

Windy grey days can be beautiful, too. Honest. Plants and animals movements choreographed with the wind. On a sailboat we too fit into the tune. Folks boarded from Lopez The Edenwild to participate in the day sail taking the helm downwind and sharing a picnic at anchor in the lee of Yellow Island.
