    Temps in the high sixties with northeast winds predicted for tomorrow. In other words, perfect sailing conditions. I should be able to make it all the way under the Coronado Bridge to downtown San Diego on one close-hauled tack, then turn around and sail all the way home on a beam reach.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    A Redondo Beach around would be closer to the answer you were looking for.
