I know we are in water ration mode, but when I woke up at 0700hrs after 3 days of no shower, I figured who would miss a 1/2 gallon of water. Unfortunately, I am now the only member of the crew that doesn't smell and on a 36ft boat I can only get so far away from the other crew members! I don't think anyone has figured out why I spent so much time in the head/shower and "don't ask, don't tell" works great for me!

Lori is making biscuits, Eggs and potatoes with Ham Steaks for breakfast. Add to that a fabulous sunrise with calm seas, and again, I have to ask, can it get any better? But strangely every time I ask that question out loud, I get three voices singing in harmony, "Yes, A Damn AutoPilot"! Ungreatfull Swabs...every one of them, I say!

Rick had the fishing tackle out again looking for another fish to bloody the cockpit floor. (note to self: a bloody, flogging fish can make quite a mess of the cockpit) Our ETA into Bahia Santa Maria is late morning on Nov 5th and then we will have a few more days at anchor to relax and recover. I'm sure the crew's voice needs a rest after all the autopilot nagging.
