Windjamming with Kira

Brenda called me the other day and asked if I would like to go on one of the overnight sails (silly woman, to even think I might *not* want to go). It was on Sunday afternoon to Monday morning. Mark is currently away in New York camping for two weeks with a buddy (same thing he did last year), so I made arrangements with X to shorten his weekend visit & took Kira.

Brenda had a really bad head cold, so it wasn't a very fun trip for her. I hope she feels better before she goes out tomorrow.It was raining lightly for most of the afternoon on Sunday, but it cleared up in time for a perfectly gorgeous sunset over Owls Head harbor, where we anchored for the night.

In the morning, we were treated to some really unusual mist patterns over the ocean. I'm glad I had my camera, I've never seen morning mist like that.

There was very little wind the entire trip, but it was still, as always, incredible to be out on the ocean. So grateful to Brenda for inviting us!!! mk

That cloud stream thingy is totally cool.

BTW, I'm going to be planting my lupine seeds tomorrow. :)

Oh, awesome! I hope they take well. :)

Yeah, that cloud stream thingy (a perfectly apt description) *was* really cool. I was really hoping the pictures would come out...wish I had a better camera. Ah, someday.
