DSC_1349The most famous sailing race out of Chicago is the 333 mile race to Mackinac (The Mac). When I was living there my friends who were sailing it would start talking about it months in advance, and the rest of my friends couldn’t stop talking about the schemes the would employ to get into the after race party.

This year my uncle, who is living in Chicago, is sailing it! I’m seriously envious! Good luck!

That’s awesome. My dad is a sailor, but has never done the mac race. Good luck to your uncle!

Yeah — I lived in Chicago for 10 years and never managed to do it. Always wanted to, but never enough to actually try to do somethign about it!
