Sorry guys, even with all my wish'n and hope'n I couldn't push enough out of the way to get 5 days! Ya'll have a great time, I'll miss everyone. I'm staking out next year now.

Catalina Adventure in August...for sure.
 
Looks like the party has already started. Kath and I will be at Rio Vista launching Pounder approximately 10 AM tomorrow. Happy C-Dories!

Jim and Kath
 
We are planning on getting in the water today or tomorrow and cruising in the Delta until Wednesday evening or Thursday morning. If anyone would like to join us after returning from the Bay let me know.

It looks like the winds are cooperating and only getting stronger in late afternoons. Hope you are having a great time.

The group is now in Sausalito. F dock at Schoonmakers Marina.

Steve,

We plan to stay around for a few days after the official event ends. We will return to Rio Vista on Sunday (5/12) and stay in the marina that night, unless you have another idea. Then venture out into the Delta for a few days. Lets get together. PM or call, four three five-491-0634

Brent and Dixie
 
We spent the day in San Francisco, A dock at South beach Marina. A great time with new and old friends. Leaving tomorrow at 7 AM to cruise back to Rio Vista.
 
The event ended on 5/12 at Rio Vista. We met up with Steve and Karen (SeaSpray) and went to Walnut Grove for Sunday night, then to Frank's Tract for Monday night on the hook. Today 5/14 we are back to Rio Vista and will pull out tomorrow morning for the drive home. 780 miles to home. This trip we went 229 miles on the water and used 109.4 gallons of gas. 2.093 MPG, not too bad with all the wind and big waves we experienced.
 
Dear All:

When I got home from Rio Vista on last Sunday, the next day I had to head to LA to work all week! I just got back.

Thanks everyone for coming this year. Kath and I had a great time. The Mother's day breakfast on Sunday was fun with most everyone there at the Stripper Cafe in Rio Vista.

Brent and Dixie and John and Laurie, a special thanks to you both for the wonderful gifts. Kath and I appreciate the thoughtfulness.

David and Donald, that was a great hike on Saturday to the top of Mount Livermore on Angel Island. We thought that trail was a great choice.

Jon, good luck on your continued cruise to Bela Bela! I know it will be fun.

Roger and Jay, we hope you made it home ok afer we saw your broken down boat trailer by the side of Interstate 5 on our way home from Rio Vista.

John and Robbin and Joel and Susan, we look forward to seeing you in Catalina, along with hopefully David and Donald and Brent and Dixie.

We are hoping that Bobbie and Chris can join us all for some future event.

Finally, it was great that Steve and Karen could show up and visit.

Sincerely,
Jim and Kath
