Back in the USA for awhile
Here we are, doing the usual mundane things once again. We've been back since mid-July, and things have been going at a rapid pace ever since. The boat needed to be stripped of it's gear, cleaned thoroughly and then put back together. Our garage has now been turned into a gear transition locker, and is slowly being emptied and sorted out. Amazingly it hasn't taken too long to get things in order.
The dogs are healthy and happy with long runs in the park daily. Our time in Catalina was well spent as a bit of vacation before the push to get back into the rush of civilization once again. After a couple weeks at home, it seemed so normal, we had to jump back on Honcho and race to Catalina and back in the "Ship rock and back race".
I've included a couple of videos that couldn't be downloaded in Mexico due to slow internet speeds. One is of a dancing horse in the Blessing of the Fleet Celebration, another is of the whale sharks, and possibly one of the bash back up the Baja, showing the rough seas. It doesn't do it justice, as the winds were 25 knots or so, and the swells 6'-8'. But you'll get the idea.
