I'm taking up sailing
and giving up tarpon fishing.
Anna and I were poking around in the skiff looking for live shrimp and black drum when we saw a young couple enjoying a Sunfish sailboat. "Oh sure, I can sail one of those, no problem." The next day I had to prove it. It's been at least 20 years since I've been on a sailboat, but with 4 years of Camp Sea Gull under my belt, getting on that Sunfish was like riding a bike. Wish I had a pic of Anna and I leaning into the wind to keep that sucker right side up.
