    LOVE your gourmet recipe. Some sailing channels offer maybe lobster with a delicate glaze, a tossed salad, asparagus tips... Our Wind Hippie has a tin of peas and a squirt of lemon juice. Eaten from the tin. I'll try it. But, do look after yourself, girl.

    That's fantastic you got back for a month. I am sure you wish to have stayed longer.
    I am a carpenter, jealous of your father's shop and am impressed by their house. I saw a few little details in there that most would miss, but other woodworkers notice and are impressed by.
    As a side note, people should know one thing Maine can teach most of the rest of the country and much of the world -
    - - they don't litter.
    It is stunning once it hits you -- - in Maine, they do not litter.
    It always looks like they just vacuumed the place.
    I have been there a half dozen times for 10-15 days each time and the cleanliness continues to impress as one travels around and notice the absence of litter seen everywhere else.

    Happy to hear you making headway by ''slugging'. I have done something similar while learning to manuver a slow speed stall. the instructor would have me slow the plane down until it was finally 'mushing' and we would fly around like that until he got mad and made me pull enough power out or pull the nose up until we fell off on one wing. I would immediately put the nose down gain speed, straighten the directton and recover. your slugging reminded me of my mushing. Happy sailing to you Holly you wind hippy!

    Hey Holly. I have a whale foot pomp with the pickup in my sump and the exit gets dumped into the exhaust. It’s great because when my bilge fills, I kick the foot pump a dozen times and no more bilge water. Now you need a place for the pump, and that may be a limitation. Good luck with whatever solution you end up with.
