So here we are, back at Glades after just 3 weeks. What a 3 weeks it's been! As we finish up the storage checklist we're left with mixed emotions about leaving our old friend so soon. On one hand, we're disappointed because we never made it to the Keys and our sailing was cut short by almost 8 days due to the repairs. On the other hand, we learned some valuable lessons, walked away relatively unscathed and have a great story to tell. I guess that's the thing with sailing - you have to be willing to embrace the unexpected. It's all part of the ride.
PS. In case anyone is wondering why our boat says "Meda" on the transom....it's has nothing to do with my fondness for metadata. It's actually because this boat originally hails from Alameda, California. The original owner sailed it through the Panama Canal and up to Florida in the 90's. Crazy. I have been slowly scraping the letters off, but as you can see it's a work in progress.
