3AM anchored in Great Harbor and the wind picks up. I feel it in my bunk and decide to go check the anchor. It is pitch black dark so I go on deck au naturel, feel the road and it is not dragging but I decide to pay out a little more chain just for insurance. I am on my knees with my head in the chain locker replacing the windlass pendant when my posterior is illuminated by a million candle power light from the next boat over.

Two days later we are in Myette's and introduce ourselves to another couple. When I mentioned which boat we were on the wife gives me a big hug and says "I really like your sleepwear!"


Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. - Mark Twain
