Count down

5 days to go!
Still provisioning and it's smoking hot. 90F at the coast, making it more exhausting loading everything.

provisioning


Gary has been working around the clock on boat preparation. I have been focusing on getting the kids schooling organized and provisioning. I have built an extremely extensive medical kit, with lots of over the counter items and more than a $1000 worth of prescription medicine. I have also been provisioning the food. For the past few weeks I have been staging much of the provisioning in the dining room and it is getting hard to walk around in there. I am hoping to get all of this food on the boat this weekend, which will leave room in the dining room to pull together all the personal items.
