Our First Blog Post!

For those of you who have been sailing with Captain John before, you will know that he is very excited about our blog! Facebook and Twitter are great, but for those of you without a taste for social networking (ie. our beloved captain) you can now keep tabs on the captains and crew from the Schooner Freedom through Blogger. We had a great group of kids on board this morning who, instead of playing X-Box all summer, donated their time to repairing houses for the impoverished. And for those of you who braved the 80% chance of rain and came on our gorgeous Day Sail today with Captain Larry and crew, you learned your knots with Jon and Meg. We're crossing our fingers for our Sunset Sail tonight, let's hope this rain moves on through! With all this rain, keep an eye out for rainbows. One of our cruising friends on S/V Bananawind snapped this shot of the Freedom a few years ago outrunning a rain shower and running into a double rainbow. We'll look forward to blogging from the Freedom!
