Julie and I went sailing again. This time we put in at the Belle Haven Marina near Belle View condos and New Alexandria.
The marina has plenty of sailboats, canoes and kayaks for rent. They also offer lessons. Check out the spelling on the sign.
We had a great time on the Potomac. The winds were steady and fairly strong.
We were on the river until nearly sundown.

Last weekend Julie and I decided to take a walk on the trails near the Belle Haven Marina. The weather was warm, one of the first nice days of Spring, so we had a nice little walk to the water's edge.
The trail follows the edge of the Potomac and is relatively quiet even though it's just off the George Washington Parkway.
The day was not so gloomy as these pictures turned out and it was very pleasant just off the trail.
There was a bird here and I tried hard to get him on camera, but he was much too quick. He would dive and then surface with a fish in his beak. We saw him eat at least six fish. I was amazed by how much one little bird could eat.
Foxy came with us and she trotted into the water to bark at ducks but didn't have the courage to take a swim.

Yes ... that's right.
I hit the jackpot. I won the lottery. Mine is the lucky number.
I won't be giving up my blog or my real estate business because I
won the jackpot. In fact, I'll be working harder than ever. But today,
I pause to give thanks to God and family and friends and clients for
this wonderful life of mine.
To tell the truth, I didn't hit the lottery today. I won the lottery
on the day I was born and I've been reaping the benefits ever since.
The best part is ... I didn't even have to buy a ticket.
You see, I was born in the United States of America, which means
that I already have life better than most of my fellow man. I've never
known war, or famine or pestilence. I've enjoyed an ever increasing
standard of living since the day I was born. If you were born in North
America you probably won the lottery too.
 But ...
It gets better than that.
I was born in the Commonwealth of Virgina,
the Mother of States, the Mother of Presidents, the Capital of the
Confederacy and the Pride of Dixie. The Commonwealth of Virginia, where
Captain John Smith founded Jamestown. The state where George Washington
and Thomas Jefferson and James Madison and James Monroe and William
Henry Harrison and John Tyler and Zachary Taylor and Woodrow Wilson all
called home. The state where Robert E. Lee fought and eventually
surrendered.
The home of the Pentagon and the USPTO and the epicenter for the
technology revolution. The Commonwealth of Virginia, most beautiful
state in the Union, from the Blue Ridge Mountains to the sparkling
beaches of the Eastern Shore.
The Old Dominion cradled me as she cradles the Chesapeake Bay, one of the largest and most important estuaries on the Atlantic.
It gets better than that.
I was born in Fairfax,
one of the most prosperous counties in the nation. I make my home where
where the Piedmont meets the Tidewater, on a ridge overlooking the
Potomac River in a place called Belle Haven---one
of the nicest neighborhoods in Fairfax County and Alexandria. My
trusted, loyal and beautiful wife is busy making a Thanksgiving feast.
My sons are healthy and headed for home. Life could be better ... but I
really don't know how.
So, today, I give thanks. Thanks to God, family, friends, clients
and country for all that I have been given. I rededicate myself to the
purpose of good and wish you and all of yours a safe and Happy
Thanksgiving. I hope your Christmas is merry and expect you to have a
prosperous and healthy New Year.
