wind all over

Donuts and coffee at sea - mmmmm!

Strata a la Susan!

N26 40 W157 44
noon - noon run 158nm
Winds are NE 12-kts now and we are moving along well at 8-kts on a course of 005-degrees T. We reefed and un-reefed and furled and un-furled a bunch of times today as the wind went back and forth and up and down, with rain showers and a double-rainbow as well. The cockpit was alive with discussions of philosophy, religion and global weather. We continue to be well-fed by each rotating cook, and we are working hard to eat up all the beautiful produce we brought that is ripening fast in this heat.
The latitudes are screaming by, though, and hopefully in a few days it will cool off. All well out here in the middle of the ocean on a dark and moonless night!
