Coffee This Morning

 

Nice way to start the day, third great day of sailing.

 

 


 

Postcards from the road.

 

Frame Stacking

Just a quickie:

The ISS “Stacks” from Christoph Malin on Vimeo.

Did I tell you I capsized last time I went sailing?

With a friend, his first time out. In a sudden storm. Much excitingness.

Details later.

Absense of nonsense.

I’ve had to take a pass on MASCF this year. First time I’ll miss it in about 7 years. Unexpected. But? I count myself lucky.

Not at all true. It’s an idle lie you tell yourself to make yourself unhappy. That is all.

When you work for yourself, you have to work like hell when you have it, because you don’t know if you’ll have it two months from now. If you’re lucky, six months go by and you’re still thinking the same thing.

Count your blessings, whatever they are.

Every day counts.
