Howling Wind in Marina

The wind has piped up to 30 knots int eh marina - and this is "Shelter Island" which describes the location.  Out in the open. it's mayhem as can be seen from these posts on VancityBuzz.

Damaged Skytrain Car

Downed Power Lines and Trees

Right now, power is out in the marina and surrounding area.  

Where Did the Summer Go??

ALAS, we are not yet full time cruisers.  We have the most beautiful boat we could i,age, yet we are dockside.  We will get away soon as we begin eh process of winding down professional life and taking to be a retired sailor.

But because we are still dock side, we will talk about and blog about our working lives as well.  You can have a life on the water and work on the  hard.  However, your soul longs for the sea, the sound of water as the boat slides along, the ring of wind int eh rigging, the physics of the disused telling you all is well and you are at peace.
