Boy, am I in luck! The car rental place I phoned yesterday still didn't have a car, so I asked them if there was another car rental agency around here. They told me Enterprise had just opened and gave me the phone number. I phoned Enterprise, fully expecting a higher rate. Instead, the weekly rate was actually $8 lower, and it's a brand new car! That includes 1050 free miles a week, just as at the first place, and they delivered it right away.
Drove to the post office and got a package of mail from Kathy, including my IRS refund. Took Roy to Beaufort to get some stuff he needed. Then we went to a carpet store and bought some outdoor carpet to replace the worn-out stuff on the cabin top. Also bought some of the goop that's needed to glue it on.
In the evening, I phoned Linda and reached her right away. She had been taking her final in Anatomy and Physiology last night. We're going to get a bonus--Gina's giving a violin recital tomorrow night. I hadn't even known she was studying the violin. Linda gave me detailed instructions for finding her place, so now we're all set to leave first thing in the morning.
This Blog is our mother's logs from her sails aboard Jofian. Our mother, Clare Holt, wrote a log every day and after her first sail to Mexico, she bought a laptop to write and save her logs. She sailed when the World Wide Web was first created, there was not as much on the Internet back then, no Wi-Fi, Internet access was very limited. I know if she were sailing today that she would be putting her logs in a Blog, so I am doing it for her. Mom’s logs to Alaska are on saillogsalaska.blogspot.com.
