Fat Tuesday was pretty Phat

I felt pretty sore this morning. It felt as if my body was run through a meat grinder...but in a good way. After running a quick scan on my previous day's activities in my memory banks, I remembered that I was in "Warrior Training" mode. Swim. Drums. Rock climbing wall. Ouch. That's why I'm feelin' it today.

Today was the best day of sailing so far, by far.

The winds were really pumping from the east of the bay and our instructor told us that 1 of our crew would capsize their sabot. I thought it would be the new kid because he lacks the experience that the rest of us have out there on the open seas.

Sabot Rental #23 was JAMMING along the water. No one could catch me around the Tacking and Jibing course. I'm talking about at least 21.72 to 26.07 knots out there! Great day.

President Obama laid it down pretty hard and flat tonight. To be continued...







Hooray Mardi Gras! Let's all go to Rio and New Orleans!
