Hitting the Trails

Was planning on going to the annual dealer conference in Vietnam in late November, but it turns out I will not be going this year. I will however be holding down the fort in Alameda while the boss is over in Nam.

On the plus side, two friends and I hiked near my home in El Sobrante. This trail is mostly used by dirt bikers, and is across the street from Carriage Hills(a massive cookie cutter suburb). I grew up here in El Sobrante, but always seem to find new trails that go on and on forever. If any of you live in the East Bay I highly recommend you get out there and take advantage of these fantastic trails. Especially now, while it's still warm, and the hills are turing green. Next week we are planning to go hiking in Canyon, which is this mirco-sized rain forst near Moraga California. I'll be sure to bring my camera along.

Yes We Can... Finally

Tonight is my Moon Landing moment. As I saw Barack Obama win the election tonight, I can say that I am more proud of my Country then I have ever been. Not only am I excited about how far we have come as a Nation, but also very excited that young people like myself are eager to get out there and rebuild our Country. Frankly, I am speechless...and trust me, that does not happen often. Tonight I am honored, humbled and excited to be an American.

Bad News... and Good News

So I did not get to take the Seawind 1160 up the coast of California as planned. Instead, I drove the crew down to Santa Barbra where the boat was docked. Afterwords I drove down to LA and then San Diego to visit my girlfriend. I did get to go to the Wild Animal park in Carlsbad, which was pretty cool.

With the Winter weather fast approaching, I'm not too sure how much sailing I will be doing in the coming months. You never know though, we do have a new Corsair 750 in stock. Also, the Seawind 1160 is on the current cover of Multihulls magazine, so check it out.
