I long for the solitude
of a sunset at sea,
and the chill of the breeze
coming in with the eve.
For the motion of my boat,
as she swings on her rode,
and the beauty of the stars,
in the evenings last glow.

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow...

"Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, creeps in this petty pace from day to day." - William Shakespeare
Well, we are all dressed up and no place to go.  Or maybe, more accurately, we have a place to go, but aren't yet dressed.  Yesterday's problem was the discovery of a damaged propeller shaft and bearing.  That addressed, we moved on today to two new issues... or is it three?  First, we discovered that the weather was looking a little mixed on Saturday, our newly planned departure date.  Secondly, Breaking News!  The bottom paint is in worse shape than expected.  It is going to need to be sanded more thoroughly before the paint goes back on.  More sanding = more men, more money, more time.  Given the press of circumstance, a Sunday departure looks likely.  The third issue?  Sandra's allergy attack is looking more serious.  At least I'm feeling..... ah..... ah........AH CHOOOOOO! - John
