Blew like crazy all night and all day. Cold, too, even though the wind's out of the southwest. 40-knot gales on the ocean. Glad we're tied to the dock.
Roy continued working on the boat. Replaced his head. I stayed on the boat all day, bundled up in the warm winter clothes my kids gave me. I had hoped to go the Post Office and the grocery store today, but it's too cold and windy.
Looks as if we won't be able to get out of here tomorrow, either. Wind will still be strong and waves high.
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.
