Wild Eyes
I rode the motorbike up to Marina Del Rey last weekend to see “Wild Eyes” and to show support for Abby Sunderland. The boat looks great and I was impressed with their level of preparation and by the people who are involved with her. Abby sailed out to Catalina and back and was just returned on Saturday morning, but was up and about for a busy day on Saturday. In the time between cameras, we spoke about the trip and her boat. I spent the night up at the Sunderland house and gave Zac a ride back to the marina on the back of the motorcycle Sunday morning. We worked around the boat till mid-afternoon when it began raining. She has such good people helping that I was no more useful than tits on a boar, so I left on Sunday evening and dropped in on my brother Robert who lives in L.A.. Monday morning was a wet and windy bike ride in the rain back to San Diego on the L.A. freeway, thrilling. Because of the weather that has moved in for this week, they have delayed Abby’s departure till next weekend, God willing and the creek don’t rise.
