Work, work, work! “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy” and this work stuff is getting old. While Dan sanded the margin of brightwork around the top, I made my first batch of banana bread in ages. Yesterday’s first coat looked great and we applied a second coat today. Looking good!


PRECARIOUSLY BALANCED ON THE RIM WHILE APPLYING VARNISH

For those of you that might not know, the brightwork refers to the varnished woodwork on a boat. It can, however, also refer to highly polished brass, bronze or stainless steel.

By late afternoon we were both ready to get back into that island mode, kicking back, reading, musing the world’s problems (not!) and napping. We did put some effort into walking the block or so to the west side and watching the sun set over the horizon.
