Doing Stuff Outdoors-76

This is our Christmas show and the last DSO of 2008. We thought we'd take you sailing instead of the predictable winter outdoor activities you do at Christmas. Back in the fall, Gary went out for an evening of sailboat racing on the St. John River. These are big boats, the kind you find in yacht clubs and the sailors take their racing pretty seriously. But there's still room for a lot of fun. Join Skipper Danny and his crew of Smitty, Mike and Gary on an almost windless night as they tackle the challenge of light air racing.

We have a Christmas comment from Mike in Illinois and seasonal podsafe music from Dusty Hughes. Email your comments about the show and story ideas to [e-mail].

We're taking a brief holiday break and will be back with a new show in January. Thanks for listening and downloading over the past year. We wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
