A few weeks back we had the opportunity to go sailing with our good friends, the Oelkers. We had never been sailing, so we weren't quite sure what to expect, but it was so much fun and so relaxing. The weather was absolutely perfect, we even jumped in to cool off for a bit. The sail boat was gigantic, and at first I wasn't sure we were all going to fit, but once we realized you just sit on the top of it, there was plenty of room for all. The boat was built by a friend of theirs' father, and you could have lived on it. It had a downstairs with a kitchen and a bathroom. It was so cool. We had sort of a picnic supper, and you had to be sure to hang on to your stuff or you would lose it to the water. I was even brave enough to go out in front of the mast for a few pics, although it wasn't funny when the wind picked up a bit and I thought I was going to fall in. I also thought it was funny that when the wind changed directions the sails would switch sides and you had to be sure and duck or you would end up in the water. Luckily that didn't happen to any of us. So Thank You to the Oelkers for inviting us, and Happy Birthday to Amy!!! We had a blast!!
