Haul Out 2011

This past weekend, we started hauling boats.  The wind was howling, but we were snug in the yard, protected from the wind by the trees to the west.  Prime Interest came out on Saturday - the last boat of the day.  It was a long day, and then we got to do it all over again on Sunday.  Although it's exhausting work, there's a real sense of accomplishment when we work together to get those boats lined up in the yard.

Bird's Eye View

During the Women Skippers Race this summer, QCYC held a silent auction in support of cancer research. Ed bid on a plane ride for me, donated by Jim Dow. Today, Katie and I got to experience a bird's eye city tour, with Jim's daughter Robin, who is working towards her commercial pilot licence. We had great weather and even managed to snap some photos of our home neighbourhood, as well as the Island.
