Went to Pillar Point Harbor for a weekend get together. Normally the crab
opener, but delayed this year. Went fishing Saturday, wind came up, and
drift was 1.7 mph, so hard that get the lure down to the bottom fish. Kept
one nice Black cod. Boat ran great.

Any day you get out on the water and the boat is running great is a
good day.

Absolutely, spent the last two days sailing from the Barbados, to the
Grenadines, and on to Grenada - 300 ft barquentine with about an acre
of sails.

Cool. That makes the 10x15 poly tarp we fly from the pontoon boat
really have a Cast Away look ;-)
Judy really wants to do a tall ship cruise. Is that a charter or some
kind of wind jammer thing?

It's a commercial operation called the "Star Clipper Line" or
something like that. It's an interesting experience, quite a bit
different than your normal cruise ship but with many of the same
ammenities on a smaller scale. Internet service leaves a lot to be
desired but it is available in fits and starts.


BoatUS seems to send discounts for those cruises at times.

My wife hated my bike. Stated you never fell off your race car.

Amen to that. Today is miserable - chilly and wet. Not the best motorcycle weather,
especially with wet leaves everywhere.

I'm at work and feeling much better today. When I close about 4pm I think I'll sneak in a ride because tomorrow the storms are rolling in.

I just got back from Home Depot Had to take the truck. I hate getting 17 mpg when I
could be getting almost 50 mpg (although that 93 octane stuff does cost more than
diesel).

It was supposed to rain today but it cleared off and we declared a
mutiny. We took our Wednesday boat ride today. We may go tomorrow too.

Beautiful evening and I spent a while in the pool.

Busy day tomorrow. I am putting in a little extra capacity in my
septic field. I found a guy (school teacher) with a mini excavator who
will dig the hole for $250-300. A local trucker is dropping off 5
yards of gravel about noon (half in the hole and half for my trailer
parking spot) and I will start spreading it to see how that goes. I
may declare another mutiny and get the guy up the street to send me
some labor.
After that it is set the chambers, pipe and backfill the hole.
