balancing family life

Saturday was 'baseball fun day' for Liam's team, an event that would take up most of the day.  Of course this is the same time that the weatherman is calling for decent wind.  However, as usual, the weatherman is not that great at his job - it downpours and kills all wind anyway just as the baseball day activities end.

A little later, I see the trees moving so I head down to Britannia around 4pm.  There's even less wind at the beach...not sure why, it was windier at home.  Sat around and talked with Perry for about an hour.  It was pretty hot so I thought I'd rig and go out in the light wind anyway just to get wet.  But what's this?  wind? joy!  As soon as I hit the water the wind picked up and I sailed for about an hour or two nicely powered on the 6.5.  Sweet!!! Just around 15-20 knots from the south west, super warm water/air.

I gave this balance line a try too, purty neat.
