| Early Morning - Fog On The Hill |
Verse of the day: "Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom." (Psalms 90:12)
0730-Morning Study time done, now is decision time, do I move before breakfast or not? Winds are light, there is fog or mist a good sign of stable air. Decided to go!
 |
| Both Wind & Fog Threatening! |
 |
| Fog Gone - Wind Building! |
1030-Arrived and anchored at the new site and none too soon. Wind and waves were building with some white caps and surfing toward the end. Wind was about 10-12 mph and waves one foot and increasing.
 |
| Leg 10 Track |
 |
| View From Anchorage To NE |
For leg 10 I traveled 13.7 miles. A very secure anchorage again. Time for breakfast.
 |
| Anchorage Inner Cove |
 |
| Anchorage - Well Protected |
1100-Breakfast tasted better in the peace of this anchorage. Dishes are next on the docket.
1140-Finished dishes and galley is back in order. Teeth brushed, hair combed. Time to message the folks.
1400-Listened to my audio book "The Precipice" until I got sleepy, then took a nap. 73F/71F.
Could fish or fly the drone but I'm not in the mood for either. Could kayak around the bay too, but will wait for later in the day when the critters roam about.

| First Loon Observed |
1545-Listened to my audio book some more, this time on the aft deck. Wind gusts were strong. Time to put pizza in the oven.
1700-Finished dinner. Pizza, salad, and a frozen mug of beer. Always a great meal!
Finished listening to "The Precipice" by Paul Doiron. Now working on the e-book "Total Control" by David Baldacci.
1745-Listened to music on the aft deck then came inside for some strawberries and ice cream. Wind is still blowing so no kayaking for now. 73F/72F.
1900-Will crawl into bed to read shortly. Wind is still blowing so it's not so comfortable on the aft deck. I will read inside. Had to crack the windows to cool it off for bed time. 75F/70F.
 |
| Kayak Still Has Water Splash From Wave Action On The Lake |
2040-Stayed up. Got first visual on a loon and earlier I thought I saw an eagle again but it was an immature. I was going to spend some time on the stern but the constant wind and small bugs drove me inside again. I think it is finally my bed time after I finish my glass of wine.
 |
| Time For Bed |
2300 to 2400- Back up killing hoards of mosquitos maybe 100! Had to get dressed again. I will need to find a solution to prevent them from hatching in the bilge.
