Well, we started our journey at 3:12 p.m. today and arrived in Scituate just before sunset. The weather was perfect--sunny, warm, and just enough wind. We had 15-20 knots all the way, which meant it was perfect for sailing. Well, almost. The wind was coming right over the bow much of the way so we did more motor sailing than just plain sailing. But no one here is complaining. We settled onto our mooring in Scituate Harbor, had a little BBQ of sausage and burgers, and now we're stowing our gear once again in preparation for an early start tommorrow. Heading to Marion at 6 am so we can make it through the canal before the currents become too strong to make the passage. Timing is everything when you're trying to get from one side of the Cape Cod Canal to the other. Hopefully the weather will continue to be with us on the next passage.

Glad to hear all is well! Last night was gorgeous. Dylan is home safe and sound and so grown up. Hoping you've got safe harbor during this tsorm we're in the middle of right now. We're on the way to the Police concert. Pray for clearing around 8pm! So cool we can track your progress even while on Bob's Blackberry. Have a great night! XO, mol and bob
