We're back after a fabulous NOLS course. On our last day, after sailing Drascombe Longboats for a month, we took our entire course out sailing on Confetti. Talk about great crew!

Jim and Carol flew into Loreto yesterday (unfortunately Joe wasn't able to get out of Denver airport) and we are about to take them out sailing for a few days in a "Norte," which are the strong winter winds that blow in Baja. It won't be a white Christmas, per se, but there will be a lot of whitecaps (!) on the water, and maybe we'll even find a cardon cactus to decorate.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from the Confetti!
