Close Quarters

Shelburne Bay

No LL

Today it was supposed to be rainy. I decided to do painting chores instead of trying to sail.

I painted the bathroom and the area where we store clothes and towels. Boy was I a mess when it was done. The spaces that I painted are extremely tight. Every time I moved I hit my elbow or my shoulder or my butt someplace where there was wet paint. Fortunately, I had three advantages. First, modern paint and those little foam paint brushes don't drip as much as the old fasioned kind. Second, modern paint is water based so smears and drips wash right off. Third, the paint dries rapidly so that before going to bed tonight we can put all the stuff back and remount all the wall and ceiling hardware that had been removed.

Oh, you can guess the rest. It only rained a little bit. Otherwise it would have been one of the best sailing days of the season so far.
