From skiing in last post to sailing, you lucky girl. Am I going to meet you at Inman?
Ginger, I look forward to seeing your photos of all the sails majestically floating across San Francisco Bay. That is unless you plan on spending Sunday at an open house.
Ginger..it's great to see you! I love sailing..haven't done it but once, but I really enjoyed it. It's a beautiful site seeing all those sails.
Wishing all blue skies, smooth waters and a brisk wind! Looks like a lovely way to spend a weekend:-)
Ginger~You have been missed and being that I have been a little MIA myself, it's great to see you here today. I love the beauty of the picture and boy does that look like fun to go sailing. Enjoy your weekend.
Ginger where you been hiding :) Glad to see you back. Looks like a beautiful day out in California on the water!
Ginger- It is good to see you are back. You are missed! Sailing is very beautiful and graceful. My mother loved sailing. I did not, growing up. But I liked to watch.
Back in the early 70's I was in Sausalito and it was really nice. I miss the west coast. I miss Monterey and Carmel Valley etc...
Sorry for taking so long to post on your site. I was in cardiac arrest when I saw that you had re-appeared. Did I make you feel guilty about your absence. Irrespectively, "the devil" made me think of you. Your post makes me want to get out and enjoy the weather for this summer. Our weather has been great for the past week, but has plummetted over the weekend. We're in the 40's now. Can you say gross. Your photos makes me wish that I was vacationing somewhere awesome. Thanks for the inspiration.
MISSY- Yes, I will be at Inman!
BRIAN- I will be working, but I am going to try my best to capture some photos, it is truly spectacular!
LINDA- Sailing is wonderful! Nice to see you too, I have missed you!
ROBERTA- Yes, it would be a lovely way to spend the day. I will be working!!
JULIE- I hope to have more to post tomorrow! I look forward to catching up with your posts.
BILL- It is a stunning, perfect California day. I have been hiding in my office. ;o )
KATERINA- Being from Arizona, I never went sailing until I moved to California. I have loved the warm reception. The longer you are away, the harder it is to come back.
JAY- I love Northern California. I am so fortunate that the rest of my family also moved here, so we are all sprinkled along the coast.
BETTAG- You did make me feel guilty, and maybe gave me the push I needed. 40 degree weather? That is gross.
A day on the water is always nice. Hope you enjoyed it as well.
Ginger,
Welcome back, young lady! We've missed you here in the Rain.
Mike in Tucson

Ginger - This post brings back a lot of memories! I grew up in the Bay Area and loved opening day! It was great to see you (but too brief!) at Inman.
Ginger - sorry for the late post, I just came across it. I lived in SF back in the early 80s. I loved it there and I love sailing, I bet you had a wonderful time.
