This week’s Photo Challenge is Grand.
To face the elements is, to be sure, no light matter when the sea is in its grandest mood. You must then know the sea, and know that you know it, and not forget that it was made to be sailed over.
— Joshua Slocum, Sailing Alone Around the World
Even in our little kayaks, in a passing little storm, we occasionally glimpse something of what Slocum meant.
From our 2012 kayak circumnavigation of Long Island, NY. The story of that storm is here.
