I've been told I drive 10 mph faster when my boards are on my roof and the wind is blowing.
35 minutes from Tomales Bay, where I enjoy an beautiful 10 minute cruise up the east side of the bay, arriving at Grassy Pt. in 45 minutes or less, depending on whether I want to risk a ticket in Marshall. Actually, I go by Nicasio/Nicasio Reservior, avoiding Sam Taylor, Olema and Pt. Reyes Station. Definitely under 45 tho. Unless I stop to pick up after-session oysters. Ever been there for that? Nothing better than winding down from a 3.5 session with beer and Oysters, watching the wind on the water.

Mr. Jse I don't know you, nor do I know your sailing venues, but you
description of oysters and beer after 3.5 has filled my brain with
endorphines. As I sit here in a Morphine like trance, I can only
hope that we meet some day on the water or after. Ever get up to Hood River?

Last time I was there was two years ago, and after the trip when I parked my car in the driveway, I wanted to ditch my family and turn around and go right back. Um... Temporarily that is... Sadly, I haven't returned. But I've been talking to Boggsman about a trip this summer.

Steve if you get up to H/R this summer give me a shout. This will be my last summer as a "visitor" (but staying in my own home). I'll be there from about July 10th till August 10th.
