I'm Sailing!!!!

 

Yesterday, Mark and Chris took me out on their Sailboat!!  It was super fun times.  They have the boat in Milwaukee and we went sailing on Lake Michigan.  I got to helm the boat, that's driving the boat for all you non-sailors.  I also got to bring in and let out the jib and I heard something about the main sheet.  I think I did something with that too.  I was really excited to helm the boat and to bring in the sails and things.  I got to use the winch on the thing to make the sails come in.  Just like in the movies.  I also learned some knots.  But, I think I already forgot them.  I can't believe I got to sail a boat yesterday!  I should probably check that off the life's to do list.  But maybe I will get into sailing.  I think Mark and Chris would like that.  After the sailing, we turned on the motor and went up and down the river for a little while.  It is very industrial where we went.  Pretty cool.  Then we had some food at the dock.  Chris and Mark are excellent Sailors and I think I was probably an o.k. Second Mate...
