June 5
The crew is spending the day cleaning, rearranging, stowing and connecting lights that have never been connected .....we now have lights on the back porch and on the sugar scoops!! Really cool.
We are dealing with sad news today. King's brother, Cliff, advised us this morning that he had made the decision not to continue on for the remainder of the trip. We will all miss him, especially King who really enjoyed having big brother along with him on this adventure.
At the same time, we also have good news. Claire and Bill Harris will fly into Bermuda on Thursday to spend a few days with us and deliver some additional boat "stuff" that King and Ed can't live without. Good grief I have two of them making lists! King even tried to order up chocolate chip cookies from his daughter Barbara.
So here's the deal on communications and the blog postings to date. We have only been able to eek out a few emails along the way and currently have no wifi connection in the harbor. I write most days but so far can only upload with wifi. Hopefully that will change but till then I will simply load them as I can. To that end I have started dating them as I have noted a few have shown up out of sequence. Sorry bout that. Please bear with me as i discover these new skills.
Wow--what an adventure so far! Sounds like some good, scary and exciting times. Sorry to hear about Cliff--was hoping he would be there to help the entire time! Guess the 3 of you will have to make do! Love the picture--keep sending when you can--love the contact! Where will you be for your birthday? Lots of love from me.
ReplyDeletePlease pass on to Ed a hearty “Hello” from his brother Bill.
