"Retire and go sailing" have been Mike's activities this year
(along with painting the MG and working on our boat). With our great
crew, we used the spinnaker
for Friday evening casual races, sailed 60 miles to the delta staying there
for a week, and did other sailing around the bay.
With Chris, Steve and many other family, we used our cabins at Wilsonia
and Cliff Camp a lot this year, working on them and enjoying
the mountains.
Marylyn has another young chiropractor sharing her office....and
she is thinking of retiring. She also
made two trips to Hawaii for seminars and to visit her sister who
lives in Honolulu.
The local neighborhood in Los Altos continues to be a construction zone of
demolished ranch-style houses replaced by very large two-story houses.
Our main journey this year was a trip to Mexico. Mike sailed 1200 miles
in three weeks with
new-found friends from SFO to Cabo San Lucas (Baja), along with
a partying group of 103 other boats. Marylyn met him there for
four days of a truly relaxing vacation.
