Bending on Sail

Cecil and Elena of S/V Sophia came by to help us bend on our sails.  We first met them in Nassau, The Bahamas where their boat was docked in the slip next to us.  We became good friends while hole up in the marina waiting out bad weather.  Elena taught Carla how to make cracked conch.  Later, we ran into them at St. Augustine.  We were both heading north and sailed up the Florida coast together.  They ducked in at the St. John's River while we continued on to Georgetown, South Carolina.  It was a fun reunion despite the fact that work was involved.  It is just part of the cruising life-style.  We hope to be able to spend more time together just relaxing rather than working on boats.
