It was another great evening for Opti sailing on Lake Mendota this week. In spite of the popularity of this week for vacations for several of our families, a nice sized group of sailors enjoyed the conditions -- especially first-year sailors with lighter winds this week. Emily Newquist and Olivia and Jaymo Foght all sailed solo this week and did a great job. Greg ran some of the more experienced sailors through a series of practice starts and everyone worked on sailing up and down the course.
The wind eventually faded, and with hunger setting in for the kids, it was time to start the grill. But, there was almost no cookout! The Simons forgot the gas cylinder for the grill. Luckily, Jay Foght had thought to throw his camping box in his van so voila! The grill was fired up and everyone enjoyed a mosquito-free dinner.
See you next week! More photos on our
