Lake, inland sea, take your pick on the name) all of my life and have never been sailing. Something to add to my "must do" list.<BR/><BR/>Your quilt is lovely -- and from what I've seen on TV, really does capture the feeling!atethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13563533672161608587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363339.post-15033767737978101742007-05-17T19:52:00.000-07:002007-05-17T19:52:00.000-07:00Surely your sailing days were not in Western Nebra...Surely your sailing days were not in Western Nebraska, US.

I don't like the 'too hot' or the 'too cool' weather or the rain...I'm just a picky thing. But when the weather is really nice and no rain in sight I'm up to a daysail. So DH has been taping the races so he can share with his son who at the moment is temporarily has no cable connection. When DH takes me out sailing you can bet he's racing with someone out on the lake though...he's the captain, I'm just the first mate...at the wheel.
