Ventura Visits


Friday, October 14

Work day: stayed below for hours planning our trip through Ensenada. I went out to West Marine by bike and found a trail running between a huge cement drainage ditch and vast strawberry fields. Boxes stacked alongside the rows labeled Driscoll gave away a source of Central Market’s supply!

On the way back I had to stop to repair a puncture and came back covered with grease and dirt. The lovely VYC shower took care of that. Jake showed up again for the Octoberfest dinner at the club and to take a few shots (not jello) for our Malo friends.

We had lively dinner conversation with Commodore Gary Bright who had arrived on his nice 46' Dutch built ketch "Antares". We'll see him southbound though he'll only have a short time in Mexico. We enjoyed hearing about the way their club is run. We were impressed by the nice facility and youth sailing fleet.
