Racing

There was an overnight sailboat race from Boston to Provincetown last
night. Some of the boats were already in when I looked around the
harbor this morning. A number of the later boats are just arriving.
There are spinakers flying as they pass the finish line off the
lighthouse at the point.

It is cloudy here this morning and we had some rain last night. It
should clear later today, and then the winds will pick up. We should
have gentler weather tomorrow as we leave for Cutty Hunk, the
southernmost island of the Elizabeth Islands.

Today we say farewell to Jim as he leaves for Boston on the ferry and
then to a train which will take him back to Baltimore.
