Have you ever wondered if there is the possibility
of having a day with no weather? From a going somewhere, anywhere, sailing (or
thinking you are), perspective; this was that day. Sails up hanging like a wet
tea towel over the edge of the sink. The boat doesn't even sway side to side.
When I move from one side to the other, I can see the ripples move to obscurity.
Who coined the phrase "A painted ship on a painted sea" Was it actually CS
Forrester? Or did he quote it? I'm still cruising to the South at better than 40
miles a day, by the looks of the current. It does seem to be abating abit. I
started with 3,3 knots of current. I long for some company. Not much in terms of
correspondence so far. I sneaked a hint to my mom. Got back "Thinking of you
& good luck". J wept. Thanks.
