Tom, clearing skies
The best made plans...
Michelle's flight was due to arrive by 10AM and me have the boat ready except for one quit trip up the mast by her, then we were to shove off on our Catalina Circumnavigation yesterday about noon. Flight delays and weather that cleared about 12 hours after forecast had us in harbor overnight. That means we skip one of our planned cove stops on the trip to get the day back. That's a little disappointing, but in the overall scheme of things, we've got a beautiful day with expanding sunshine as we make our way across to Cherry Cove.
Michelle took her first trip up the mast this morning. She's been excited about doing it for a while, and finally got to go. Former gymnast and junkie for working with tools, she was in heaven 30' up removing a huge old antenna from the radar perch. And I was in heaven also, because I didn't have to go up the mast. :-)
Next post will be from Catalina!!
