Hi all,
Sorry for taking so long to get this out but everything has been really hectic. Faye and I got to St. John's Airport at 4:00a.m. to catch our flight. Everything went well. We got to Boston at 9:00, picked up our rental car and found our way to Hingham by around 10:30. We were disappointed to find the mast was still down. The radar was installed on the mast but the new shrouds were still to be delivered. Nevertheless a whole crew was working to get her ready and by the end of the day the mast was in place and a pile of other things had been taken care of.

We went to our hotel, The Nantasket Beach Resort. It's right on the beach and our room has a view over the ocean right out to the Minot Ledge lighthouse. Gary and I may sail there as a test run before we begin the homeward trek.

After checking in we made a run to Quincy to find a Walmart and pick up some gear. It was late when we got back so we had a late supper of Clam Chowder at a great little place called the Schooner then went and hit the sack.  I've attached a couple of photos:
