After forgetting my eggs at home and realizing I was almost out of coffee, I decided to head to Port of Sidney in Skully. I arranged to meet up with Gina and had a delicious breakfast of Eggs Benedict at a sidewalk cafe. It was very good. Gina and I had a nice visit and went shopping together at Fairways before I hopped back into Skully for the return to Sidney Spit. I sailed off the anchor bound for Glenthorne Passage, Prevost Island.

There was a strong wind warning posted from the Southwest so my original destination to meet up with Barnucka; Princess Cove, on Portland Island would be unsuitable. Thats why we decided to drop anchor in Glenthorne Passage. It is and was very calm and well sheltered. Given that the flood wasn't until 4:00 p.m. I didn't think I'd see B man until dark. I was taken by surprise when he caught up to me just west of Portland Island, in Captain Passage. That's when I started the engine and steamed with sail up, to dinner at Glenthorne Passage.

We howled at the moon that night. The next morning I went to the Marine Park in James Bay. Other than that, we relaxed, ate well and swung around in the Passage for another night before I split early Sunday morning to pick up Gina and head to Portland Island. Glenthorne Passage is always a good choice when the wind is from the South. Iit's supposedly warm enough to swim in and at one point I threatened myself that I'd do just that.

Fortunately I managed to talk myself out of such nonsense.
