If a person must be obsessed by something, I suppose a boat is as good as anything, perhaps a bit better than most. A sailing craft is not only beautiful, it is seductive and full of strange promise and the hint of trouble.

Poulsbo Passage

We had a great time last weekend taking Segue II from Port Hadlock to Poulsbo.  The weather was unfriendly for sailors (little wind and some rain) but we had a good time anyway.  Poulsbo is a neat little town that takes Joy back to her "Scandahoovian" roots.  The town even came with a goofy little group doing folk dances from the 14th century. (see video) Stopped at Hama Hama on the way up and got oysters to barbecue on the boat using a Bobby Flay recipe "Hog Island Oysters."  WOW!


This weekend it's Isabel on Segue II for hopefully a few short sailing trips in Townsend Bay.  I've been looking forward to this one since the day she was born!!!
