Recently we sailed from Long Beach down to San Diego and back.
As sometimes happens a little bird sought refuge from the big ocean aboard our boat. It later flew onto my shoulder and then off again.

This German built 2001 center cockpit is berthed in Alamitos Bay, Long Beach. Lynn, professor and playwright, and Mark Nelson, fire engineer and art historian, bought the boat in 2001 in Vancouver, Canada and sailed it from there to Long Beach. Since then, Convergence has plied the waters of Southern California from the Mexican border to Santa Barbara and from the Sea of Cortez back home.

Start rowing...
For the truth is that I already know as much about my life as I need to know. The day will come when I will die. So the only matter of consequence before me is what I will do with my allotted time. I can remain onshore, paralyzed with fear, or I can raise my sails and dip and soar in the breeze.
--Richard Bode, First You Have to Row a Little Boat
