Great work if you can get it


What a week!!!
The Picture above is of Sam Davies, British sailor and with good wind s and fair weather is likely to be , not only the first woman , but also the first Brit over the Line in the Vendee Globe race in the morning , which will put her on the third place position on the podium.( Go for it Sam , I will be up early in the morning to see for sure) After 97 days at sea we are all waiting for you to get home safe.
I have been real lucky this week , out on the boats myself. taking those brave idiots that insist on breathing compressed air and jumping off of perfectly serviceable boats into an environment where everything including the plants has teeth.
But someone has to stay on board and bask in the sun, watch the dolphins play and the Ospreys dive for fish against the back drop of 500 metre high volcanic cliffs. Great Work if You Can Get It. Oh! of course I do have to pull up the anchor and drive the boat back, the fifteen minute voyage to the marina before having lunch and then doing all again in the afternoon.
will post some Pictures soon of a hard day at work.
