Sailing Race



Gabriel had his first sailing race as part of the sailing club he is in. Although it's getting pretty cold, we were blessed with a sunny day. It was a lot of fun but I have to admit to being one of "those" dads who was getting frustrated when Gabriel got stuck at one point.

"In irons" it is called when the wind comes head on and is difficult to catch. I was yelling instructions to Gabriel (who was to far out to hear me) and needed to calm down...and did with a "nudge" from Tammy. Gabriel came in 4th overall and he really loves sailing so we look forward to his continuing in the spring.
