Monday, December 5, 1994

Hooray! We're back in the water! We really lucked out: the tide was high, the wind was calm, and the downpour and thunderstorm quit just before it was time for us to go in, so the launching couldn't have been easier. Now we're tied to the end dock, where we were three weeks ago when we first arrived.
The weather is unbelievably warm for December. Almost hot. The temperature went all the way up to 71! But a cold spell is approaching, so we're hightailing it south. Tomorrow we'll head for Great Bridge.
After lunch, Roy took off on his bicycle to buy a tube of tooth-
paste. I gathered up the dirty clothes, piled them in the wagon, and headed to the laundromat. On the way, I met Roy riding towards me with two full plastic bags. I said, "That's the BIGGEST tube of toothpaste I EVER saw!" Roy said, "It was so big, I had to borrow a hacksaw and cut it in two, so I could put half in each bag."
