Boat work.

Both spars sanded today (mizzen and main)—both booms tomorrow. With the weather being unrelentingly sunny and dry, we decided to take a break from interior painting and trim. Before these spars reassume their vertical position, all the lights need to be tested and a new masthead wind indicator/anemometer installed. Not to mention new paint.

On the way to work in Gore Bay we drove past the Orangutans (Lou and Julie Short) in Kagawong as they were dropping a huge sugar maple across the street from the Chocolate Factory (the lot where the BBQ chuckwagon parks). On top of that, today was the day the C. Factory reopened for the season, and coffee was free. So, with conversation and coffee, we were nearly two hours late to the boat work.

But that's Island time.
