I've never been, but one day Doryman will have to visit all his friends the world over (wouldn't that be the vacation to end all?).<br /><br />To add to the insult, blogger picked you up as spam. I knew who you were without being told though, so you've been rescued.dorymanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16077373149267825091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007838299911865964.post-57848532115114985172012-07-25T09:22:33.523-07:002012-07-25T09:22:33.523-07:00oops - that was me, Bonnie at Frogma - don't k...oops - that was me, Bonnie at Frogma - don't know why this word-decoding thing strips me of my identity!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007838299911865964.post-75845343381495611822012-07-25T09:20:56.100-07:002012-07-25T09:20:56.100-07:00Beautiful!

Boy, TQ and I dream about a pretty little sailboat we could sail together - not seriously, just "wouldn't it be nice?" - always great daydream fuel here. <br /><br />Anyways - the post I thought you might like - have you ever been to Suomenlinna?

One would expect winds in the afternoon. The calm extended all the way out the Strait of Juan de Fuca, as witnessed by those who headed west to go home.<br /><br />Each of the two times I crossed Rosario Strait, it was very windy - the second time, too much wind. Jamie and I encountered deep standing waves as a southerly blew against the ebb, a common and dangerous situation.dorymanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16077373149267825091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007838299911865964.post-40013938418787324082012-07-22T05:03:29.674-07:002012-07-22T05:03:29.674-07:00Beautiful!
