I just wanted to share this with Sarah and Tabby, mostly.

I just listened to The Christians and the Pagans and almost cried. I also really enjoy The Ocean and I've been wanting to get my hands on Southern California Wants to Be Western New York.

I met up with Joanie from Clearwater winter crew for dinner and drinks tonight. Much love to that little chickadee. She is in so many ways the person I want to be at 29. She's emotive and loving and vegetarian. She gave me my first vegetarian cook book. She got the boy I wanted and did with him and for him what I would have wanted to do-- ( Read more... )

Another deckhand and I spent the day sanding four of the spars (=sticks on the boat, boom, gaff, two topmasts). Covered in sawdust. We went on to scrubbing the oiled parts of the topmasts with green scrubbies and tacking them all. We also painted ( Read more... )

I'm not sure I really remember how to update on a more frequent basis... I'm working on it ( Read more... )
