Long Beach, day before regatta


I’m currently in Long Beach CA, for a regatta -- T is racing, not me. His quad is the only boat entered from our club, so there aren’t too many people for me to hang around with while they’re on the water.

Unfortunately, the race is scheduled on Sunday instead of Saturday, presumably because some other event was using the marine stadium today. Long Beach has a great course, but seems to have some organization problems. There’s a juniors’ race in the morning, which is supposed to be over at 11, but all of the locals sound convinced that it’ll probably wind up around one. Which means that the men’s quad’s 3PM race will probably not be over until 5, at which point we’ll have to drive the 6 hours back home. Sigh. Maybe I’ll row Tuesday instead of Monday.
