wingssail images-fredrick roswold The leaders wait for us to cross the water
Catalina Liana and Mike Danielson celebrate her birthday with, what else? A hike.
They love to hike the trail from Bocas de Tomatlan to Playa Las Animas, have some cold beveriges and lunch there and take a panga back to the cars at Bocas. They invited me. "It's an easy hike Fred, you can do it."
So, one more time I fell for that fantasy and off we went. Drive to Bocas de Tomatlan (Donna drove) and cross a rickety bridge, then follow the trail. No matter how much I train I can't seem to keep up with these "kids" so they soon passed me up. But I made it and I was not last, more like middle of the pack. Boy those Pacifico Beers tasted good at Las Animas.
I've been to Las Animas before, by boat. Judy and I anchored Wings there and had lunch. This was harder.
But anyhow, I like to keep doing stuff and this hike was a good one.
I am a sailor, born of a nautical tradition passed to me by my father and my Grandfather Alfred. I’ve spent most of life on my passion which is the sea and the vessels which go upon them. I have had many such vessels and now I live on and sail on the sloop WINGS.
which I acquired in 1986 with my wife Judy
who shared my passion. For ten years we lived on Wings in Seattle and sailed, including racing. Then we left the Pacific Northwest and voyaged across the world, across the seven seas, to faraway places, and made them our own.
For thirty-eight years I have lived and loved this life. I still live on Wings, in Mexico, and sail and race often. Judy passed away in June, 2023 and I miss her but you can still join us and sail the seas as we did for all those glorious years. Fred Roswold, SV Wings, Mexico
