A common expression heard among sailors in Colorado: "If you can sail here, you can sail anywhere!" I'd say it's primarily due to the quick-changing mountain weather and heavy winds that come up without warning. But the constantly swirling winds, steep mountain terrain, cold water, limited facilities, and lack of depth charts and hazard markings also make it a challenging place to sail. Several notable sailors hail from Colorado including world champion sailor Cameron Holland, Olympic competitors Chris Steinfeld, Erika Reineke, Sarah Ragle and Jack & Marcia Mathias and three-time America's Cup winner Josh Belsky (born in Rye, NY but relocated to Aspen, CO in 2008). Colorado is also home to the world's highest regatta, the Dillon Open Regatta held every August. Music: "Broken Bones" by Love Inc.

Toni and I continue our winter ritual and went to check on “Moments in Time”. What in the hell were we thinking? It is cold, it is windy, and it is snowing. It is days like this that make us question our sanity. Anyway, I think we learned our lesson. Next winter we will be where the palm trees sway, the bikinis abound, and the rum is plentiful. Feel free to comment and let us know your thoughts. Subscribe and share the adventure! Become part of the conversation by liking https://www.facebook.com/SV.MomentsInTime/

Brrr, it’s cold out there! In this video, I'm leaving Wahine and heading to Osaka for an exciting marathon and some cherished family time. Despite the chill, the journey is heating up—after Osaka, I'll return to Okinawa before setting sail for a few months-long adventure chasing the cherry blossoms along the length of Japan. Join me as I blend the thrill of marathon running, the warmth of family reunions, and the serene beauty of Japan’s iconic cherry blossoms into one epic voyage. #OsakaMarathon #CherryBlossomChasing #SailingJapan #OkinawaAdventure #JapanJourney #FamilyTime #ColdWeatherRun #MarathonAdventure #JapaneseCherryBlossoms #TravelJapan #sailing #adventure
