Slow news (and weather) day...

Lest you think the book was all I've been spending time on (and it feels like that some days), we're still getting some water time in. Today is one of those "hunker down" days... my tongue is in my cheek, but that's what one of our local weather weasels called it. There is a cold front moving through the area currently. There is a gust front associated with it that has kicked the wind up to around 20 mph (our typical wind is 17 mph). There may be 20 minutes of light precipitation associated with that front. After the frontal passage, the temp is supposed to drop... it may get down to 80 degrees, from the mid-80s we've had the past 10 days.

I guess it was a slow news (and weather day) locally.

Yesterday, we had a fine Tropical Tip kinda day: a nice long walk on the beach, then out for lunch with the boat. A nap while anchored topped it off nicely... with about a 2 foot swell in the cove, with a long period, meaning a slow rolling motion. Perfect for being rocked to sleep!

We saw our friend, Herb, out there in his Ranger Tug...

Looks like he was needing some out and about time, too.

It's been nice having "another summer" after leaving the mountains.

And some good news regarding the book: it has been accepted in Smashwords "Premium List", meaning it will be distributed through the other big on-line eBook retailers. It may take up to 8 weeks to get on Barnes and Nobel, less than that for most of the others, including the iBookstore at Apple.
