I have sailed on fresh water. 7 Chicago-Mackinac races, as well many small boat regattas for “E” Scows, Tornados, college sailing. But I am from the East Coast and have Sea water in my blood. Shocked when the spray is not salty. The sights and sounds are not at all the same.The regard for the water is just different. These photos were on a day that the locals told me was a rough day on Lake Sonoma.
While the lake was full of interesting wildlife the most surprising thing I saw was the floating head. This was a first for me.
