0900-Coffee with cookies and my morning study routine is complete. Now I will make breakfast of cereal, toast, with peanut butter. Verse for the day: "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight." (Proverbs 3:5-6).

Went up top to rub down the panels to remove the heavy dew. Solar 39%. 66F/46F.
After breakfast I read a book and did dishes then got ready to move.
1200-Departed the boat site after the solar was near 70%. Stopped and tried to tie up at High Rock Island as planned but there was too much cross wind going between the islands. The dock was too short and the boat site too exposed to wind, so I passed and headed SW. I was not sure where I would go.

1415-Made a chicken salad sandwich with cashews accompanied by white wine. Still a bit chilled from the passage. Very nice site but no firewood. May scout for some.
1520-Just got back from cutting and splitting some firewood. It will be nice to have a real fire tonight if it isn't too cold.

1545-Did some filming ashore and prepped for drone flights. I will eat later since I had half a chicken salad sandwich. Solar reached 100%! 64F/64F. Warmer, sunnier, and more enjoyable today. Four days since my last 100% on the solar battery.
Made pizza for dinner accompanied by a cold beer. After dinner I flew the drone then made a fire.
