Sailing Adventure
Down the lake the little boat went in front of the wind. A pleasant sail that took the small boat to Berthold Bay. Low and behold Nick was there with some friends on the Jennie Rose. The Jennie Rose is the boat Kadizzle has been helping restore for the last couple years. Sailing back into the area where the Jennie Rose was anchored we went aground. The depth meter on our boat is useless. Getting back on the water brings back hundreds of memories. Each Spot on the lake has a story. Shad owned the boat we were on and probably got tired of Kadizzle's endless recollections. The bunk on the small boat was small and narrow. After we had some socializing tied up next to the Jennie Rose we crawled in to sleep. Shad snored all night and Kadizzle had the fire belly from the fire pickle and a couple rum and cokes. The weather forecast seemed to promise a sled ride back in the morning, but that was wishful thinking. Leaving early to beat the oncoming rain we ended up beating into massive waves. The morning was cold and spray from smashing the waves did not make it any better. The wind god had to show he was boss and made us fight out way back. Tired we finally made it back to the marina. Kadizzle is getting old and the battle wore him down.
