Today
we prepared for our daughter's arrival tomorrow... or at least we
tried to but an all day rain kept us from doing all the cleaning we had planned. Working inside, I was able to clean the
fenders that are kept on the sun deck and hope to get to the others on the bow tomorrow.

The
Captain took care of scrubbing the bridge deck which gets pretty
scuffed up. Amazingly, exactly like the outside of Miss gg, she is
very photogenic belying the truth of all the nicks and scars of this
long wonderful Adventure.

You
can't tell from this photo but the guest head is really big compared
to the little bitty head (bathroom) in the master cabin.

could shower in this one.
Ready
for Cathy.
We
had good news from friends that crossed the Gulf yesterday through
last night. They all made it.. all had high waves up to 6 feet to
start with but after 1a the sea settled down. The skies cleared revealing a full moon and the sun rose over their bows. Our Friend Grace was
at the clinic waiting to see a doctor about the awful cat bite when
she emailed us so we feel sure that she will soon recover.
We
are excited that we may have a weather window to cross the Gulf this coming
Friday. However, you know the weather... all could change. Still,
we will enjoy our visit with our daughter.... I think we need a
“family fix”. We are grateful to Cathy's wonderful mom in-law
who will be taking care of her little girls while Cathy is with us
and while her hubby works and also travels out of town.
Soon
the Great Adventure will be out on the open Gulf waters......I'm
excited... okay, maybe a little nervous...... but still loving this
amazing trip!
