I have to get my anemometer plugged in. We were recording up to 20 mph on the hand held, but I knew it had to be more than that with the great gusts we had. The wind today was not nearly as bad and we escaped much more easily than anticipated.

I did not get much sleep last night, worrying about the boat, but it fared very well. It is much worse in the fall when the water is lower and the boat is further out. The breakwater is not as protective.

I was amazed that there were boats out late last night in those waves. They were just bobbing up and down! I would have been very afraid.

Happy Summer Solstice to all
