I was not in Chicago this past weekend, although I did catch bits and pieces on the web. One of the members of my club is on Taylor Canfield's team (Mike Rehe). I work a lot with his mom (Loretta) and his uncle (Ron Sherry - multiple DN iceboat world champ).
I just got back from Racine late last Monday night, which was the culmination of almost a month of race management / judging - 24 of 29 days (July 6 - August 4) were spent on the water or travelling to events. I'm burned out.
