Last Friday afternoon, Debbie and I met up with Patti Bell and Mike Bryant, two dear friends from Reno who are always up for a good time. We arrived at Tahoe City Marina about 4:30 in the afternoon and set sail for a lovely light-air cruise. As the sun lowered in the sky around 7:45 p.m., we sailed back, put Splendido on the buoy, and enjoyed a wonderful dinner of short-rib burgers and a delicious summer salad. Somewhere along the way, we lost a fork overboard, but once the water warms up, I’ll dive in and take a look around our mooring block. Right now, the water’s still…how can I put it? Refreshing. Damn refreshing!
