It =
is now
October and the main season of sailing for the Lake Juliette Sailing Club is
over. We have no further sailing events scheduled. In the past month we have
had three fun events to close down the season.
A f=
ew weeks
ago we had the always great treasure hunt. There was fantastic weather with
really good winds to zip us around the lake. The added attraction of the po=
ker
run made for even more fun. Bob worked hard to set things up and made the d=
ay
really exciting.
The=
next
day was the rodeo that is normally run by Ron Katz. Since he was out of tow=
n,
the job was left to me. There were only three boats at the lake for the rod=
eo:
Michael, Warren Hughes and me. Bob
was also there but he said he was only planning to sail, not compete. Carl
showed up with a wind surfer and also was not planning to compete. We decid=
ed
not to have the rodeo.
The=
St
Simon’s trip was well planed by D and Bob. Gas did a number once again
and the trip was changed to three days on Sinclair. Tommy joined us for a s=
hort
while (it was really good to see him out sailing with us). Pete and his fat=
her
Erick were trying out their new boat, the TimeAway, Jimmy and Charlotte were
there, Bob, and also Sherry and myself. For three days we fought low to no
winds and a constant cloud cover. We were trying to make it up the river to=
the
Highway 16 bridge, but we never got that far due to a lack of winds. We tur=
ned
around at Oconee Springs and headed back to the south end of the lake.
All=
in all
we had fun, friendship and most of all sailing. Wish the rest of y’all
were there.
