Planned on going to Santa Barbara but can not figure out how to be there with the dogs and Darlene since there is not a beach. Might just have to do it when she is gone to New York. Leave the dogs with Mom for sure after all this will be our first time. Emerald was a blast we did not get out of the water for two days. Monday morning departure quite interesting as the wind came up and started blowing like 20-25 knots. So much for taking a shower a night before. Kept on blowing 17 NM out from the island. Very calm in Santa Monica bay. We left at 6:05 in the morning. Met some great ACBA members this weekend. Saw their boats but screwed up and did not take pictures. By the time I got ready they were heading back to the main land. Going to have to join the local club. Nice to meet people who are into older boats. Kristine had a Christ Craft from 1950... very nice indeed.
As you can tell we all had a great time!!!! Note special guest Barkley!
