Great pictures for a hot day. To think that I once disliked the maintenance chores for a sailboat, keeping the teak and brass "up to snuff" as our skipper (Dad) would say with annoying regularity. From the wisdom of hindsight, what a gift to share with us to learn to sail, to love the morning fog and salty breezes to follow. Mopping the deck is still, well, just that but how I love the rest of it!
