Better Today

It wasn't so bad today. We flew the spinnaker for most of the day playing hide-and-seek with the sun, race-the-black-cloud, and dodge-the-squall. Then the wind got too strong for the spinnaker and now we are making good speed with the genoa. We still have the swell, but it's not so confused anymore. If conditions continue this way, we should be in on Friday. Mike is still trying to get well. He doesn't have much of an appetite and he has a hacking cough. But his energy is good. He still does the night watch until 2 a.m. Then he's back up again between 6 and 7 a.m. He takes a nap in the afternoon. I tell him to sleep longer, but he can't. Man, I sure can!
