Gone Sailing

Sorry for the radio silence.  I had a sudden opportunity to go out on a boat and I took it!
So since last Friday I have been sailing around the neighborhood.  It's been absolutely lovely!  This all began as Anchor Quest 2013.  A friend lost his anchor off Necker Island and diver friend said he could find and retreive it so off we went. 
On Friday we sailed around Jost Van Dyke which provided a look at the island I never had the chance to see before.  What a pretty place!  Saturday we went down to Soper's Hole to pick up a few things.  On Sunday we headed up to Trellis Bay and Scrub Island.  The weather was against us so getting to Necker before dark was just not possible.  Instead we went to Scrub Island and had cocktails at the pool bar.  The diver friend fell off the water slide and broke his clavicle.  (That was effectively the end of Anchor Quest.)  He went home and then to the hospital while we overnighted at Pusser's and then went to The Baths on Virgin Gorda Monday morning.  In the afternoon we headed down to Cooper Island where we picked up a mooring ball  for the night and went to the restaurant for a lovely supper.  The weather was changeable yesterday so our schedule was changeable as well.  We had been thinking of visiting the Willy T. but opted instead to go straight over to Penn's Landing to drop the boat off and then back to Cane Garden Bay to pay respects to the injured member of the party.
All in all I think I prefer being on a boat to being on the beach but I'm not knocking the beach!!!  What a great and unexpected opportunity!!
Must note that I forgot my camera yet again.  There were so many spots just too beautiful for words and I guess I'll just have to visit them all again with my camera.
