30 second update

It's Race Week again. The week that I look forward to all year. The biggest keelboat regatta east of... well... most things.

This is the second year without Skipper Thom. I'm am currently in the kitchen making sandwiches and drinking coffee and getting ready and the song "You should be here" came on just as Dickie walked by with a crew hat on. (The back of the hat has "Thom's Legacy" written on it, and I never wear mine so I forgot about it).

... and I lost my shit.

I got it back, no worries.

But it's funny how grief can whack you in the back of the knees when you're not expecting it.

Oh well, onward and upward. Here's to a fun, safe, rum and sun filled regatta.

If you're interested I'll post pictures as I get 'em.
