Cool pictures Theo. Sorry that you could not join us for Mead Madness. Maybe next Fall. Heres a picture of a few of us the week before you were there and we also had some wild winds.

You can't control the wind,
but you can adjust your sails.
Blessed be the wind.

Hi Folks,

Thanks for the reply Sumner. From what I have read you have had similar adventures. Sail On.

Patrick. Gee, you guys look about as "exposed" as I was. I can tell exactly where you are from the background. Welcome to the Great American Southwest Desert. I would love to join you guys but I am constrained by my kids Spring Break schedule. We will almost definitely go to Lake Mead again next year. Despite our travails we consider it a learning experience and would do it again in a heartbeat. People that have not been to Mead, Powell, etc. just do not know. Don't go. Leave it for us!!

Now keep your eyes off my wife and kids, that is the far right background for Patricks photo.

Now I know you wish you were here.

They lemme post three photos, so I will post three photos. Nyah, Nyah.
