Day 11 Honolulu to Blaine

We have about 1200+ miles left to go to the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Right now my guess is we'll be there the 6th of July or so and then have 1 more day to get from there to Blaine. That is all dependent on the weather of course and the assumption that we'll be able to keep up our current speed. All is well aboard. I managed to use the old solenoid for the stove as a bypass fitting so we now have the use of the stove back again-thankfully. I sure didn't like the idea of eating cold pork n beans for the next ten days. We discussed it and probably would miss the hot
coffee, tea and cocoa the most. Those nights seem really long and the coffee's important! I have now sailed offshore the equivalent of once around the earth at the equator. Just a few hundred more miles to go now and my delivery of "Music" will be complete. It will be the end of an era for me but I guess the start of something new. We'll have to see what's in store because I really don't know right now what that will be. Take care all-thinking of you. Our Day 11 run was 140.3 n miles.
