We woke up today to, you guessed it, rain and cold temperatures, but for the first time, there were howling winds as well. (Whatever happened to "red sky at night, sailor's delight?") We had been keeping an eye on the forecast, so this did not come as a surprise. We had pretty much determined yesterday that we were going to stay put, unless there was a dramatic change in the weather. It's a wonderful thing not to be on a schedule!
The day was spent getting things done. I spent the better part of the day trying to access the marina'a internet on the boat so I could catch up on this blog. I finally succumbed to the frustration and slogged my way to the marina office to ask if there was a quiet place I could hunker down with a stronger signal. They were wonderful and found a place for me in a back office. In between, I did 2 loads of laundry as both Tim and I are pretty much out of all our cold weather clothes and everything was wet, anyway.
Tim puttered around inside the boat, alternating between plotting our next course and doing various odds and ends. Dinner was on board as neither one of us was up for braving the elements to dine out.
This weather is getting old!
