It's been a pleasant day 2 sail reaching at first, then as the wind backed to the SE I put
out the Spinacker Pole and have been sailing wing and wing. It's been a sunny day but
has come overcast now, I am slightly off course as the wind shifted a bit with the
clouds, I might jibe, but will give it some time, I have been going quite slow, but
everytime I go to shake the reef out the wind picks up.
Not much happening really, reading and playing with the radio all day, its quite pleasant
but I am rolling a lot.
It sounds like these Bushfires are Still burning in NSW, Keep your chin up Hanna and
Heath, Mum said the house and shed are OK so far, it must be nearly over.
Not much else to say, its a bit like Ground Hog Day really.
