I hope you did not pay for the witchcraft of dowsing.

As an intelligent person, if you paid you got ripped off.

Wells are drilled into a water table. Where you place your well
is of little concern because the water in the water table will
be within a foot or two of being lever.

John,

It is rather simple, stick the thumb into the folded fingers to the
first knuckle and hold it at arms length. That will give you a 10 degree
spread. Each knuckle is two degrees. Top of the knuckle to the hollow
between 1 degree, half way up or down is a 1/2 degree. If your sighting
is between I say plus or minus. ( When voyaging, a 1/2 degree will get
you to 30 miles. A minus gets you inside 30, a plus over 30.

To Calib. your fist and arm, stand in the corner of a room and count how
many fist it takes to get 90 degrees. Ten should do it for most people
but it will let you know what your fist represents

Kind of a fun and easy way to check out things that are happening around
you.

So as of tomorrow the Sun will be 23 1/2 degrees below the Equator.
Subtract that from your local GMT Noon reading and you should have your
local Latitude.

Not sure where your located but St John is about 45 degrees (4&1/2
fists) minus
2 fists and 1 & 1/2 knuckles should be the local sighting (2 Fists and 1
knckle)
Give it a try and a laugh at Ole Thom

Ya know, I would really love to meet Neal, even at the risk of providing
him with great fodder for future posts! However, we'll be up in Boca
Raton - a side trip down to Key West would be about 200 miles, with CN
about half way. I'm not sure we'll make it, but if Neal would like to
put us up for a few days, we could be tempted! My daughter would love
to go swimming off a boat again!


She'd be delighted by the wildlife around Neal's boat .... especially all
those catfish!!!



Regards

OK, if it makes you feel better, I envy you.

This is one of the few times I will say it is DEFINITELY too cold around
here to sailing.

BTW do you feel safe sailing around a place called "Port Hacking"??

The last time we were in those parts we were anchored about 10 miles
away, at Lignumvitae Key, and were entertained for several hours by a
mother and child dolphin.

There is no 'global warming". What they are calling global
warming and trying to blame on human activity is but one
of millions of normal climate cycles that have occurred over
the millennia.

Having suffered frostbite, I'd guess that yes, it would be less painful...

Is that less painful than frostbite? :-)
