June 17, 2000 -- What Can I Say, Another Relaxing Day

We planned to start inventorying our storage areas today. However, after breakfast, I looked at Mike and informed him that I didn't feel like doing anything. We spent the morning watching cartoons. Or at least I did. Mike fell asleep. After a little while, I got bored. I didn't want to read, I didn't want to nap and I certainly didn't want to watch TV. Instead, I headed outside and started polishing our stainless steel stanchions and fly bridge stainless. I decided this obviously couldn't be work because I was having fun working on it. Mike woke up midway through and came outside to keep me company. He oohed and ahhed appropriately to keep me interested in continuing to work. I finally called it quits and took a nap. Mike piddled around since it was too hot for him to do anything. That evening, after firing up the generator to charge the batteries, I did laundry. After dinner, we tried to watch the fireworks, but it was too hazy for us to see much of anything, so we watched them on TV. Fireworks on TV just aren't like being there though
