After the nerve shattering day from hell,
we finally had a day with weather decent enough for a pleasant sail.
I was surprised at how nervous I was but François reminded me that it’s like riding a horse.
If you fall off, it’s best to get right back on.
Now back at the Trois-Rivières Marina we headed out for a little sortie on Lac-Saint-Pierre…
Our route…
Since our recent violent encounter with ‘Dame Nature’
we discovered that François is much more confident under motor,
while I am more comfortable under sail.
….And today, once that engine stopped, I felt at peace again.
…just the sound of R.E.D. slicing through the water and the wind in her sails…
….past Trois-Rivières …
…past the village of Bécancour…
…under the Pont Laviolette…
…I’m back on the horse again, my Captain…
