We rolled the day's dice and they came up sunshine and mostly calm. When we were within ten miles of our destination, the wind finally picked up.
Doug was at the helm, learning the feel of the boat. Mick and I unfurled the jib, and we were off to the races. I shut the engine off. Ahh.. The peace it brings always makes everyone sigh. We sailed toward the anchorage in silence.
With anchor down, we ate a lunch of leftovers. Afterward, the crew enjoyed the afternoon paddling around the cove. Diana deployed the paddle board, while the boys put their backs into the dinghy oars. I stayed on the boat to post a web log.
Diana is learning her way around the galley tonight. Sloppy Joes from scratch.
