Nice pics
Nice photos! I'm in the Chicago area and the evening sailing has been nothing short of spectacular here the last few days. The Great Lakes are under the influence of a stagnant high pressure center that has kept winds predictable, steady and moderate for days now. The temperature out on the water has been cool here (under 70 degrees) and the water's flat. The breezes have been steady even after sundown and the combination of brilliant red/orange sunsets in the west and a rising near-full moon in the east remind us of why we sail. Very peaceful, very calming, very inspiring. Enjoy the waning days of summer.
