I've Got To Keep All This In Perspective

So, after race one it was close. We thought we were 2nd. We asked the RC, they said we were 2nd. I see the book at the club, it says we are 2nd, the the daily trophies are presented and we are 3rd. They "made a mistake". Blink, blink. Oh. That sucks, wait. Huh? What are all these eraser marks and arrows and... Whatever. I'm riding my bike to and from the regatta site all this week because for the first time I can and as I was riding home this evening I see Mt. Tam in all her glory looking awesome and I realize that all this racing stuff is gravy. Look at what I get to do and where I get to do it. The amazing blessing continues.
