News:
Looks like my birthday wish has come true as we have a sunny day with light
breeze. The barometer has risen to 1036mb and we have reached the edge of
the Pacific high pressure system. Looking at the next few days the
weather to the North is fairly settled and the weather predictions are for
West and South Westerly winds in the 10-20kt range. Currently we are just
short of the half way mark to Homer with another 1200 miles to go, I am
hoping to arrive on Saturday morning. The boys are taking advantage of the
fair weather to repair a few things on deck and oil the leather fender hooks
while Penny is making steaks for dinner.
