Gee whiz....it's been such a quiet hurricane season!

YAY!!

It is so nice to hear the weatherman say that the "tropics are quiet." This has been pretty much a quiet season. Florida used to get a lot of those, but this is the first time for a while that it has been so calm for so long. Gee, we are only up to Fred on the naming.

It means that O Town residents don't become complacent because there may be one just around the corner hiding, but we aren't so anxious...nervous....worried....or whatever! No fighting over flashlights and batteries. [don't laugh, it happens] I remember when people would sit in the parking lots of places like Home Depot or Ace hardware waiting for a shipment that was due for generators.

Hurricane memories. We all have them. And the T shirt too.

Hope everyone is sailing more that I am. Work schedules and illness have kept me off the water for a while, but this weekend is looking good for sailing in town on Lake Fairview now that my son has caught the sailing bug. This is a good thing since he sails Endless Wind, and when hubby and I moved up to the Owl, we did not want to sell EW. Best of both worlds!

Lake Fairview is a great in town marina...check it out here: http://www.lakefairviewmarina.com Cynthia and Jay are the best! And so is Jim!

Next weekend am hoping to sail the Owl. Crossing my fingers and toes for that!!!

Hope everyone is staying safe and dry.

Yes, it's true the hurricane season isn't over. However, Florida tends to get hit with storms in July and August. I'm still crossing my fingers and toes 'coz it isn't over...FOR SURE.

"Auto ascending setup is an interesting idea, though it takes a bit of fiddling around to get it right. Once it's dialed in, it actually works quite well."

"Michael, From experience over three keel boats a fully battened main is almost a requirement. Not only will it make dropping the sail into the boom bag far easier it certainly reduces any flogging and vastly lengthens the life of the sail. While…"
