Another day

I'm writing this on our 3rd day here. We camped here early the day before yesterday as the headwind had picked up and we decided being windbound with a network connection was worth something. Fighting for an extra few miles was likely to put us out of range. Today is the real windy day with over 2 meter seas so the marine forecast said.
Yesterday was hot and sunny.. Quite nice though some biting flies did become a problem...it was not until 4 pm or so. The south wind of yesterday has become west then northwest. No shorts and tee shirts this morning.. It was bundle up weather for our 10 am breakfast. Today is mostly cloudy...unlike the sunny day we had yesterday.
It's supposed to ease off to variable 10 knots by morning..seas half a meter. We're 70 miles from Sault Ste Marie and Dave hopes to make it by Friday due to picking up some resupply at someone's house who won't be around on the weekend?.. We'll see how that goes. I heard southeast winds of 15 knots... That's a headwind.

Solar power .. Dave and Amy working on updates etc...

It looked like we might have had a spectacular sunset...but the clouds at the horizon were just too heavy. Still it was a nice evening.. A calmer period between wind direction change..

Breakfast .. Pre-lunch book time

Doesn't look too bad eh? Though we are a bit protected where we're camped and waves are still building.
