Great Harbour Cay
Our latest day in Great Harbour was much like the last few. We awoke to cloudy skies, a gusty wind, and occasional rain showers. Stuck onboard, the next stop on my cleaning tour was the pilot house. I washed all the windows both inside and out and then applied a fresh coat of Rain-X to the exterior. While I dusted, polished some stainless, and cleaned the floors and walls, Barry was cleaning the oven. He took the door off and disassembled it to finally remove a drippy ooze that came with the boat many years ago. With those chores done, we filled the afternoon with a few more. Barry worked on the generator and I put together our menu for our upcoming crossing. After cleaning the galley, it didn't take long for me to mess it back up with baked salmon, a pot of rice, and sauteed asparagus. Today's culinary effort provided dinner for tonight and will cover two more meals along the way. As darkness fell, Barry checked the camera at the house that showed bright green grass (freshly mowed thanks to our wonderful neighbor Ken) and my azaleas in full bloom. In a slight improvement over recent days, we actually saw a hint of a sunset for about five seconds before the clouds extinguished the elusive light.
I'll end with another look at a much more vibrant sunset during this year's trip. Oddly enough, this favorite is from April 13, our first night here in Great Harbour. Unfavorable travel conditions have kept us here much longer than expected, but a short weather window is opening for our crossing. We will prepare tomorrow for an early Sunday morning departure. Crossroads and Paradigm Shift will buddy boat back to the States.
