The Rizzo's Sailing (and other) Adventures. Saturday, January 28, 2012. Let's have a party. We have been blessed with a visit from out daughters and grandkids this week. Not sure how this whole tea party on the boat started, but Abby, my almost three year old granddaughter kept asking me each night (when I got home from work) "Cappy, can we go to the boat tomorrow? Saturday is a difficult concept for a youngster when it is days away! Abby chose the snail cookie and I got the butterfly cookie! Where, then...

http://sail-renovatio.blogspot.com/2012/10/kaias-first-sail.html
The Rizzo's Sailing (and other) Adventures. Tuesday, October 16, 2012. On Sunday, we took the opportunity to enjoy a 70 degree October day out on the bay with our neighbor Elise and her daughter Kaia. At 10 months, Kaia enjoyed the first sail of her life! The conditions were a little challenging with 20 kt winds and 3-5 foot rollers coming in from the South. We reached across the bay and back and then motored around Annapolis harbor. Kaia trying out her sea legs. This was the coolest thing ever! What doe...

The Rizzo's Sailing (and other) Adventures. Saturday, October 27, 2012. Weekend at Deep Creek. Eileen and I, along with two other couples were invited to share last weekend with our friends Dave and Carol Leach at their place in Deep Creek, MD. It is absolutely God's country, about a four hour drive west. We went to Swallow Falls State Park. And hiked the 5.5 mile loop. Eileen and Cooper in the park office/store. This place so reminded me of Robert Treman State Park in NY. A natural picture frame! Dan an...

The Rizzo's Sailing (and other) Adventures: The Tide is High!
http://sail-renovatio.blogspot.com/2012/10/the-tide-is-high.html
The Rizzo's Sailing (and other) Adventures. Tuesday, October 30, 2012. The Tide is High! This morning, I was whistling along to Blondie's " The Tide is High. This is one and a half hours after high tide on the morning of October 30th. I have never seen the water so high. The current water level is impacted by several factors; crazy amounts of rain from Hurricane Sandy, a full moon. Chances are that the water will be up to the brick walkway. Well, I think it is cool.

The Rizzo's Sailing (and other) Adventures. Wednesday, May 23, 2012. 2nd Annual Sail Fish'n Trip. Whenever the wind is up, I am always thinking…. I hope nothing breaks! The only thing that broke was the genoa furler. Actually, it was the furler line that pulled out of the drum so we had to furl the headsail by hand. On the way out of the Patuxent River, we foul-hooked a cownose ray. Until Paul lost 7 six-packs to Steve. Steve called Paul “Seven” for the rest of the trip! Chesapeake Beach was an awesome p...
