Greetings from the isle of mayflies!

On the 15th we got underway from Erie with a group of kids from Cleveland who are part of a children at risk sailing program. They all did a great job, all but one out of about 15 or so went aloft their first day and then helped out while underway both aloft and on deck. The sail to Cleveland went smoothly, except for a late-night all-hands call because one of our crewmembers had a health issue. It turned out to be harmless, and we continued on with a lovely and uneventful sail the rest of the way.

After dropping off the Cleveland kids we headed off again to Put-in Bay, Ohio, where we are currently.
It's an interesting town, lots of small shops and tourist-y things to explore, whoop-de-do, you know how I love that sort of thing.
I love it kind of the way I love having mayflies inch deep and slide-crunching across them just to walk down the sidewalk. Eew.

But Bravo watch has off today until 2200 (10PM), so I'll have all day to explore and see what mischief I can get myself in and out of.
