LET'S LEAVE THE KAYAK AT HOME ON THE NEXT TRIP


ST. CLEMENT'S SAILING TEAM HITS THE HIGH SEAS

While the sun and whales never made their appearance, plenty of dolphins appeared to brighten the day. We enjoyed a super afternoon in 10-14 knot wind off the Dana Point coast. We'll find those whales next time. Hallelujah!

On watch. Hey, is that one over there?
A natural at the helm, like he's been doing this his entire life.

WHALES, WHALES EVERYWHERE

Yesterday, the Admiral and I went out for a comfortable sail in light wind. Quite enjoyable. Once back in the slip, a sailor friend stopped by to give us these whale pics with Serenity Now in the background. He was following the same whales Greg, Amy and I were on our return from Catalina recently. Sure is fun to be on the water.

AVALON . . . SERRANO-STYLE

How often do you encounter an avid hiker and lover of the outdoors, Flamenco guitarist, gourmet cook, snorkeler; and that's only on this trip. What else can this firefighter do? Good times on the 88th Catalina trip of Serenity Now.

ABUNDANCIA DE AMIGOS

I don't want to get philosophical here, but what can be better than an afternoon sail in light air off the San Clemente coast, enjoying the playful dolphins and colorful sunset with good friends?


The amigos. That's Laurie with the very expensive Angel cup.
