Sailing with my dad has got to be one of the best things I can do with my time. The man is amazing. I don't think I have had such a carefree time in so long. The breeze, the water, the sky. The weather was perfect. The wind was just right. There were sea lions bathing on buoys, there were little boys going fishing with their Grandpa. There was Miller Light and Jimmy Buffet. The way my dad and I get along is so funny. Our sense of humor around eachother....just watch out cause you may be in trouble if you keep the two of us around a large group of people for too long. Beppie (his mother) hates it when the two of us get going. I am a daddy's girl through and through to the core, but not in the way that you would normally think of a daddy's girl. I don't call him everyday and ask him to dig me out of my ditches.....he's just the most amazing man in the world to me and if I was to ever lose him my world would be turned completely upside down. There is not another single human being on this planet that I feel that strongly about.
I love the feeling of controlling the boat, yet knowing the the one wrong decsion and the boat has control over you. All the intricate steps that are included with the laid back look of being out for a nice sail. The best part is my dad trusts me enough to leave me at the helm and not worry that we are going to hit someone, or that I am not going to be able to tack in time to get the 25 foot boat turned around back into the wind. One day I hope to be able to go out on my own, to know enough to take the boat out and sail it on my time.....then one day, when I have a family I can share this amazing feeling with them.
I took pictures. Me and Dad out on the boat, of the sea lions, of the Miller Light can, and some of just random things that I thought looked picture worthy, we will see how shitty they all turn out.
